What customers say
Dropped off 5 rolls of film on late Friday afternoon, and Henry stayed back late to have them ready for me the next day since I live out of town. I am impressed with how the pictures turned out. Highly recommend this place.
Foto Express does great work. Fast turn around. I got 3 rolls of film done in about 1.5 days. I usually just pick it up in 2 days. It’s a bit of a drive for me to come here but they do great work. You can have them printed or scanned or both. Scan just bring a usb stick when you drop off the film.
Had a great experience at foto express. Dropped off my Fujifilm disposable camera for scans and prints and the price is pretty affordable. Cashier was friendly too. They gave me a ticket number and told me to come back in 3 days and I picked up and paid for my photos. Really happy with how they turned out!
Outstanding service , I come here to develop my 120 films the processing speed is always within 4 days, usually in 2 days. Super friendly and professional customer service. I don't think I want to try else where. I am highly recommend here to those want to develop 135mm or 120mm film or even 127 film.
