In 1983, he went to work for Paul's Photography / Ark-La-Tex Color Lab and followed on with the lab after the split of the two businesses in 1987. In 2004, Bruce and his wife Pat were ask to start The Image Gallery as a division of Ark-La-Tex Color Lab, and in May of 2010, Bruce once again has moved on to a new adventure.
