What customers say
I needed 145 physical photographs scanned to digital for an upcoming wake service. Everywhere I went said it would take 3 days minimum and they would have to be hand-placed. PhotoTek was the only place in Lake Charles with a self-loading scanner and they were able to scan them to a DVD for me in AN HOUR.
I moved to Shreveport almost ten years ago, but I still send my pictures to get developed at Phototek. The quality and service just doesn't compare to any other place. I either pick them up when I'm in town or she mails them to me! Best customer service around.
This place scanned and digitized a mountain of photos for me to make a funeral slideshow. I was impressed by their professionalism. Highly recommend.
I went to develop some film and they were super patient and informative! Awesome people!
