What customers say
Needed scans back in a pinch and decided to give Speedy Photo a try, even though it required an hour and a half drive there and back. They were efficient and friendly in store, and I received the email with my scans *literally* 20 minutes after I checked out!!
I’ve been here twice and both times were amazing. I got my film back within a few hours so I was very pleased! Especially since she said she’d send them later that night or evening so it was much sooner than expected. The woman at the register even remembered me even though it was only my second time back!
Hands down the best film lab in all of Washington. This place has become my go-to spot for developing film every time I drop off a roll, I know I’m getting fast, high-quality scans with excellent attention to detail. The turnaround time is consistently quick, and the results always blow me away.
Cannot recommend this place enough! I shot on film for the very first time on a recent trip, and as soon as I got back I mailed in my film rolls. Within an hour of the rolls arriving at the lab, the digital files were in my inbox and ready to download!
