Darkroom Dedication to Peter Doe

  • The Bakery Photographic Collective 630 Forest Avenue Portland, ME, 04101 United States (map)

Please join us at the Bakery to celebrate the life of Peter Doe (former owner of Photo Market) as we dedicate one of our darkrooms to Peter. Joining us will be Rachel Doe, (Peter’s daughter) as well as friends and family. There will be drinks, a ribbon cutting and a few words about the man. We miss you, Peter, and we are so grateful for all you have done for the Maine photographic community.

“Doe, 65, was the owner of Photo Market on Forest Avenue, which recently celebrated its 35th year in operation, according to an obituary. Born in Fort Fairfield on Sept. 5, 1955, he graduated from Bonny Eagle High School in Standish in 1973, received a degree in studio photography from Rochester Institute of Technology in 1977, and lived in Portland for many years.

Doe’s passion for photography bloomed in high school, when he joined the photography club, his family said. Later, he grew the Photo Market into an eclectic and well-loved local institution, and was a vocal supporter of the Buy Local movement.”
