My Favorite Film Labs Across The Globe (With Addresses)

Sharing my favorite places to get analog film developed and scanned. As my travels grow this list will be updated. This list is not in any particular order. All of these labs have fantastic customer service and quality scans. As I find more labs I will update this list.

If you’re looking to learn film photography, I have you covered with free tutorials over on YouTube. Get started here with my Ultimate Beginner’s Guide to Film Photography.

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA
35m Labs
Okay, I lied. This is number one for a reason. This lab is hands down the absolute best film scans I have ever received and at a decent price. If you are in LA go here & thank me later.
Address: 15133 Ventura Blvd, Sherman Oaks, CA 91403

ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA
The Photo Lab, Costa Mesa (near Newport Beach)
Address: 270 E 17th St #13, Costa Mesa, CA 92627

SEATTLE, WASHINGTON
Omega Photo
I’ve struggled to find a lab in Seattle. When I was at Glazier’s cameras and asked for a recommendation, I was pointed in the direction of Bellevue.
Address: 210 105th Ave NE, Bellevue, WA 98004

MANHATTAN, NYC
Broadway Photo
Address: West 93 & Broadway or West 72nd & Broadway

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA
Rewind Photo Lab in Glebe
They do an incredible job similar to what I love about 35m Labs in LA. It’s a little tricky to find as it’s a small door sandwiched between a college campus. Just look for the window display that is full to the brim of film stock and you’re there.
Address: 5/2-12 Glebe Point Road Glebe NSW 2037 Australia

COPENHAGEN, DENMARK
PhotoCare in Frederiksberg
This is my second favorite place I have ever had scans done. PhotoCare has 2 locations, this one in Frederiksberg and Vesterbrogade. Frederiksberg is the only location that develops film! Vesterbrogade is where you can purchase film but they do not have a lab. It’s still worth a trip as they have an incredible selection of 35mm cameras (including the Contax T3, T2, and G2) Make sure you go to the Frederiksberg location to get your film developed.
Address: Rolighedsvej 6, 1958 Frederiksberg, Denmark

LONDON, ENGLAND
Mr CAD Photographic
They send out the film to be developed, so you will get it a little later rather than if it’s in house.
Address: 12 Upper Tachbrook St, Pimlico, London SW1V 1SH, United Kingdom
