A badge only appears where the data proves it. No “in-house” badge doesn't mean a lab ships your film out — it means we couldn't confirm either way, so ask at the counter.

Developing film in Portland: common questions

Where can I get film developed in Portland?
2 Portland businesses develop film: EverPresent, B & W Photo Lab. They are ranked below by local reputation — rating weighted by how many people reviewed them.
Which Portland lab should I use?
Ask three things before you hand over a roll: do you develop on site, which scanner do you run, and do I get my negatives back. 2 of the 2 here are confirmed to develop in-house, and 1 is known to return your negatives. A blank on a card means the lab hasn't published it, not that the answer is no.
How much does developing cost in Portland?
Independent pricing is national in shape: about $5–12 to develop a roll of 35mm, $15–24 develop-and-scan, $16–26 for 120, and $12–20 for E-6 slide, with black & white a few dollars more. Call two Portland labs and you'll usually land inside that band. Drugstore counters charge more and mail your film away.
