They are super nice in here and knowlegable. The prices are reasonable. They scanned old negatives for me and they turned out great and it was a fast turnaround.

Great local spot for film development. They have been able to help with the development of rolls I have shot, as well as scanning decades-old slides found in the attic. The turnaround time for getting my scans and prints has always been within one week of dropoff. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I would recommend this spot to anyone, and I will absolutely be returning!

Support local!!!! Such a cool spot. I have sent my precious film way out of state in the past with no promise of ever seeing it again but nevermore! Great merch, great equipment and lovely people 📸🎥📷📹📽️🎞️🩶

Best place on the planet! Rob (the owner) holds classes for learning everything film! He’s incredibly accommodating and patient! He’s a walking encyclopedia. Come to develop your own film here !!! Photos taken below are the outcome of an amazing double exposure workshop hosted by safelight labs (:
