What customers say
Best place in Pittsburgh (and probably PA) to get film developed! Have bought multiple cameras from them and have been so happy with the quality. I highly recommend them for new photographers and seasoned photographers!
Can not say enough good things about this place. Not even a dozen people work at this location but it’s apparent why they all work there. They know what they are talking about and they enjoy photography and everything that it entails.
What an excellent place to deal with! I can’t say enough about the staff. And I just want to mention that Phil and Nick went out of their way for myself and a friend of mine. Nick took maybe a good half hour or so explaining how to work the equipment we purchased.
This is the only place I go to not just to develop photos but to learn about photography. The staff is phenomenal and so knowledgeable. As someone who is new to film photography, they have been essential to my learning and experience. Highly recommend this business.
