What customers say
Visiting from Chicago for a week and LA Film lab might have been a highlight of my trip. The atmosphere of the store is open, bright and inviting and the staff was incredibly helpful, knowledgable and honestly just kind overall.
I’ve developed my film here a few times already and I’ve been really impressed with the results and processing time. Dropping off film has always been quick, and I’ve always found parking. It’s also extremely easy to place an order on their website for whatever film type or development process you might need.
Went to LA film lab yesterday to drop a roll after a photoshoot, first they were incredibly nice, the store is beautiful, just got my scans back and wow ! So excited to stop developing myself and drop my film here ! Thank you so much for the quality work !
Amazing service and developed my photos in less than 24 hours. They also have parking in the back, which is a lifesaver in that area! Highly recommend.
