What customers say
To the people saying they're pricey - film has gotten expensive everywhere lately but I have noticed that they're scans have gotten a lot better lately! You can tell they're investing that money back into the business They almost always send the pictures back same day even though they say it'll take until the next…
Saw an advertisement on their Instagram on price drops for film rolls so thought I had to pay them a visit to check out the place. Came to buy some film I needed for class and also for shooting for personal work!
Recently dropped off 6 rolls before noon on July 3rd and got the scans back by end of day. The person who helped me was friendly and answered my question regarding the extra cost for pushing film. No problem finding street parking. The dev/scan cost of color 35mm was about .
I have nothing but positive things to say about J&F. From their amazing customer service to quick, efficient turnaround times, they consistently deliver top-notch results. Whether you’re dropping off 35mm, medium format, or even disposable cameras, they handle each roll with care.
