What customers say

I love this place already. I’m a photographer from London and came to LA for the first time and found this place. The reviews were amazing so decided to give it a try. They were perfectly on time and sent the scans within 2 days and the lady who works there is so lovely.

★★★★★ — Aliyah, 2023-05

I love this place and take all my 35mm and 120mm film to be developed & scanned. They send me an email/link with scans and I pick up my negatives when time permits. Happy customer of 8 years.

★★★★★ — Alex, 2023-11

The quality of even the lowest tier of scans is incredible. Some of the best 35mm scans I’ve ever seen, and not crazy expensive. Beyond impressed. Will be coming back!

★★★★★ — Brielle, 2022-01

Fair price and great service! Always take my film to develop there and was always very satisfy with the result.
