D.C. Stanley Photography plans to open its new mixed-use building at 316 Morningside Drive, in downtown Friendswood, on Dec. 1. The new building, in the works for almost five years by husband-wife owners David and Voula Stanley, is 7,000 square feet with two stories, with the Stanleys residing on the second floor. The first floor is shared between a 1,500-square-foot studio and 1,400 square feet of office space for lease. Black Forest Builders, a Friendswood company, oversaw design and construction. The business has been in operation since 2009 and primarily covers weddings, school sports and events in the area. 281-996-8600. www.dcstanleyphotography.com
