Captura has acquired Studio Source Yearbooks to bring proven yearbook operations and studio-first support into the Captura ecosystem - giving studios a streamlined way to manage every yearbook from setup through delivery without adding more admin.
RALEIGH, N.C., Jan. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Captura, the ecosystem built for high volume photography studios, today announced its acquisition of Studio Source Yearbooks (SSY), a trusted leader in studio support, yearbook production guidance, and operational execution.
By bringing Studio Source's proven support model and administrative tools into Captura, yearbook studios can confidently manage every yearbook from setup through delivery, including setup, school collaboration, ecommerce, print, and fulfillment. The result is a simpler operation: fewer tools, less manual coordination, clearer status tracking, and hands-on support designed for real studio workflows.
Making yearbooks simpler, without adding more admin
For years, studios have relied on Studio Source to manage the complex work surrounding yearbooks: the deadlines, the back-and-forth with schools, and the production details that often define a season's success. By combining Captura's technology with Studio Source's experience, studios now have a more reliable, scalable, and efficient model that keeps creation, management, and delivery under one roof. The entire process becomes easier to manage, easier for schools to follow, and far more predictable for studios wanting to grow the category without adding administrative overhead.
Mike Limbach, CEO of Studio Source Yearbooks, said:
"Studios deserve a yearbook process that feels organized and predictable. Joining Captura gives us the ability to bring that level of reliability into the everyday tools studios already use. This is a major step toward making yearbooks easier to manage and far more sustainable to grow.
Brett Zucker, CEO of Captura, added:
"Studios have been asking for an end-to-end way to run yearbooks without adding more admin or juggling more systems. Bringing Studio Source into the Captura ecosystem delivers exactly that. Together, we're giving studios a simpler, more confident way to expand a key part of their business."
A stronger foundation for growth
This acquisition strengthens the parts of yearbook operations that traditionally create the most friction: visibility, coordination, production guidance, and predictable execution. Studios can keep doing what they do best, building school relationships and creating great books, with a more connected engine behind the scenes.
For Studio Source customers, the trusted service and support they rely on remains - now backed by Captura's technology investment and broader ecosystem. For Captura Yearbooks customers, Studio Source brings an established operational dashboard and production support model that further streamlines the yearbook lifecycle.
What comes next
Over the coming months, the Studio Source Dashboard will begin connecting directly with Captura Yearbooks and Captura Workflow, giving studios a single command center to manage yearbook operations across school partnerships and projects.
Additional updates will roll out through 2026.
