We are retired Navy. We understand the challenges today of some of our service member’s have to access of photographic services due to DOD cuts in the Photography ratings and facilities.
RGB Imaging was founded in 2007 because of the BRAC cuts at the time and the initial consolidation of Naval photography labs in the region. We called the Naval Air Station Oceana Mini-Mart home under the Navy Exchange for 5 years until 2012 until facility issues caused our move off base. Since then we have continued to provide Official Military photographs for our Active and reserve duty personnel in the Hampton Roads region. Many bases refer there personnel to us to provide continued support.

Military Ball Photography
RGB Imaging has become the leader in the Hampton Roads region for Military Ball photography. We have two different types of service for them.
- Formal portrait booth -which is a mini studio on location. Couples are professionally posed on a military styled background. We use top of the line canvas backdrops and custom floor systems to create a special scene for your guests. Couples view and approve the image prior to printing and all images are printed on-site for them to take home that evening using our high quality thermal printers. Couples or individuals pay for the image package they choose. Commands may also choose to pay for the photos themselves as a gift to the service members.
