Consider your photography needs;
Do you prefer a high-touch experience with a studio manager and support staff in a retail location? Do you want to be able to drop in and pick up your products on your own schedule? What about office hours? What are your expectations?
For creatives like portrait artists, “business” comes in all shapes and sizes. Many are one-(wo)man shows who work on location, edit at home, and deliver a product to you. This offers the professional artist more flexibility to work on their terms and sometimes you get extra perks since they are not running a large retail studio and employing a staff. Maybe they offer ordering sessions at their cozy home studio, with refreshments and easy parking for you. When you call, you know that your portrait artist will be the one answering the phone and you like that relationship. Does that feel like an experience you appreciate?
