left in people's hometowns. If Sandy
Springs wants to maintain a vibrant
retail community, a consumer has to
support that."
Kelly Wolff, owner of the Hunt
er Collective jewelry store in Buck-
head on East Andrews, opened her
business two months ago. She'll con
tend with having fewer hol
iday shopping days and be
ing the new store on the
block. "I'm figuring it out
as I go along," Wolff said.
"The West Village here in
Buckhead is getting together to do
the Small Shop Saturday on Nov. 30.
There'll be carolers and hot cider sta
tions throughout the West Village.
From an event planning standpoint,
we're going to offer 10 percent off for
that weekend."
In Dunwoody, Michael Beattie
counts on holiday sales at his pho
to-finishing business, Dunwoody
Photo. Most photographers have
switched to digital cameras, he said,
and the film processing business has
just about vanished. "When I started
[in the business] in 1997, we did 300-
350 rolls of film a day. Now I do 300
rolls of film a month," he said. "I've
been waiting for the last
two months of the year to
see where we're at. We're
kind of break-even the oth
er months."
He's hopeful that the
seasonal push that comes when peo
ple turn their family photos into hol
iday albums, greeting cards and cal
endars will make the difference in
Dunwoody Photo's first year.
