We were thrilled to receive the AP Good Service Award at last week's awards dinner!
This is the third year in a row that we have won the Good Service Trophy - delivered by Amateur Photographer Magazine to retailers who have consistently delivered fantastic results and experiences for their customers - and once again we are proud to be the only analogue specialists and film lab in the list

Thank You!
We are truly grateful for your continued support, and your passion for analogue photography. Here's to another year of fantastic film!
(p.s. Max and I did take a Pentax 17 and rolls of Kodak Gold to the event - those photos will come soon!)


Congratulations to all of this year's Good Service Award winners!
