What customers say
The people that work here, Daniel especially are super polite and extremely helpful. Keep in mind that you may have to wait a bit to get your film/scans but it's absolutely worth it. Will def be using their lab for the foreseeable future.
I love this darkroom! You can process color film, it has workshops. It has exhibits. The people who run the place are really helpful and friendly, 100% recommend it.
Amazing resource for the community! Affordable, friendly and very knowledgeable!
