Photo Lab NYC, LLC

Love this place ! Learned so much in 4 hrs , one of the people that helped me his name his Carter , he is one of the people that teach private classes and group classes I really enjoyed the space and experience , everyone is super nice, a lot of professional photographers come here to do their work. there are a lot of new people you can meet as well that have the same interest which is super cool! If you’re interested in learning color dark room this is the spot!

I rarely leave a place in NY feeling like I got what I paid for- PhotoLab is one of those exceptions. I took a night print class and printed large the next morning, both of which were very positive experiences. Carter was very helpful during the darkroom course, and the morning staff was very helpful and patient with me the following morning. The facility and materials are of the highest quality without a doubt, but what makes this place truly special is the people who help make it happen. Already excited to go back and try again.

Super secret photo lab: no signs anywhere, no way to get in. The phone is dead. Either set Sunday as non working day, or make some effort to let people know how to get in.

The photo lab was an amazing experience. Me and best friend got to take maternity pics ! The process to sign in was smooth and taking the pictures were super easy ! We got even print out 3 of our favorite photos.

Above and beyond experience here. Took the Thursday color printing class. Though I have plenty of BW darkroom experience and have been shooting for over a decade, I had never printed color. The class was very thorough, collaborative and fun, and the owner Rafa stayed significantly later than the scheduled end of the class to answer my questions and chat about photography in general. Have yet to drop off film for developing, but when it comes to printing, I can’t wait to return to print more.

First and last time I will ever use this place… Dropped off my film almost 2 weeks ago and was told it would be done in 2 days. Pretty standard. On the 2nd day I hadn’t received any communication at all so I decided to call myself. After 5 attempts someone finally answered where they told me they had a flood and would have my film by hopefully Wednesday (3 more days). I felt bad and was patient. By Wednesday i was emailed that I would not be getting my film and I would have to wait until "by Monday"….. I truly felt awful these people had a flood so I decided to wait. Monday came and I still had no film or any type of communication from this place whatsoever When I tried calling on Monday my phone call was going straight to voicemail for 8 consecutive attempts. Until someone answered when they told me my film wasn’t ready and they didn’t know how long. It is now Wednesday of writing this and is till don’t have all my film. And to be honest, it does t seem like they care at all. Absolutely horrific experience

this lab has instantly taken the top spot in terms of where i'll be going to develop my films. they have a quick turnaround time and they offer a lot of processes that are not offered elsewhere, plus you get to pick which developer you'd like them to use for your b&w negatives (!). the owner is very helpful and incredibly knowledgeable + experienced. their darkroom facilities are top notch too.
