What customers say
If you prefer a human interface for photographic services, Mark is the man to see. He has years of experience servicing and calibrating the commercial photo process printers that do the job. However, his service and quality control is better than a drop slot or an online web mailer service.
They develop film, despite not advertising it at all or mentioning it on their website, they do it
I had such great service by Monterey Bay Photo Lab. I arrived with negatives from the 1940's of our family house which was destroyed by the Palisades fire. Mark was so kind and professional, understanding how precious they were. He made sure to provide both printed and digital pictures to share with our family.
This is a shop that knows what they’re doing. It’s plain and simple as that. When you talk to them that there is a clear lifetime of experience and care at this shop.
