What customers wrote in our store survey

“… Gabby, Karen, and Tim at the lab counter always provide a fantastic experience with great communication, not to mention personalized tips on different film stocks and gear. … Despite having a local film lab in Jersey City (albeit with quite limited hours) I will elect to make the journey to Fairfield instead whenever I can manage. …”
Customer survey, 2024
“Mark did an excellent job matting and framing this beautiful art print I had purchased at a museum. I selected the matte and frame; and through phone conversations and texts he showed me the work ahead of time so that I could tell him to go head. It is exquisite; and I am eager to hang it in my front hallway.”
Customer survey, 2026
“Excellent. Pure fun. Great shooting events, great variety of classes, great camaraderie. … In the sales area I received lots of patience and direct answers to my questions. I had many because I'm new to mirrorless cameras. …”
