I told her I would be coming in to check them out and she said it was fine. When I arrived, I see them hanging on the wall and I see one that I liked. When I asked if I can try it on, she said I can only try it on if I am going to commit to paying for it. I was confused as I told her I cannot pay for something if I don't know what it will look like on me and she still refused to let me try it on and just held it on her hand. I told her that I was very interested in one of them but I needed to see it on me, she kept saying I needed to pay for it if I wanted to try it on. I told her I was not interested anymore and she said okay. I'm sorry, but I have NEVER been to a bridal store where they don't let you try on stuff. That was RIDICULOUS. Why would I pay for something if I don't know how it looks on me? I also told her that I had tried veils already and I've seen some where the clip shows and the draping of the front isn't the style I want which is why I wanted to try it on but she still didn't understand that. You only wear a veil once so I want to make sure it's the ONE so it was very disappointing.

I cannot say enough amazing things about this photo restoration studio. I first came here to…read morerestore some foundational family photos for my mom's 80th birthday, and the results were beyond anything I could have hoped for. The images that are part of our family's legacy were brought back to life with such care and beauty. I loved the work so much that I came back again to have a childhood photo restored for 11 of my aunts and uncles as a birthday gift. What he does is truly artistry. He takes his time, pours his heart and soul into every image, and you can feel how much he genuinely cares about the stories behind the photos. In a world where so much is done quickly with AI, he is one of the rare artists still doing this work with incredible skill, patience, and heart. There is something almost spiritual about walking into this place and trusting someone with your most precious family memories. This will be the only place I trust with our valuable family photos. Truly exceptional work.

The quality of their work is consistently fantastic. John clearly pays attention to the little details, the scans always come back looking beautiful, and I trust them completely with my film rolls with a process that I can't redo or recreate, precious moments. On top of that, their turnaround time is incredibly fast; they get them over to you the day of (as long as you get it to them before 3pm that day), or the next day. I've tried several other labs over the years, but I always end up coming back to this one. There's a reason they've become my go-to, even from halfway across the country. If you're looking for a film lab that combines exceptional quality, reliability, and fast service, I can't recommend them enough. Thank you John!

This was a horrible experience, as I would imagine even the business would recognize. I posted on reddit my situation about needing slides from the late 90s digitized and then some also printed for an exhibit. Reddit users suggested Valley Photo Service. I loved the idea of supporting a locally owned and seemingly historic small business. I called in late April and I confirmed that they could help my situation. A nice guy on the phone confirmed that they could do a bulk scan of my slides. I told him how they were digitized once before in 2003 but I imagine the technology had improved. He agreed that just even a bulk scan would be better than what was done back in 2003. We agreed I'd bring them in, do a bulk scan, check out the quality, and then from that bulk scan, I would pick out a dozen to print out for an upcoming exhibit. I drive in on May 1 and he is not there, but another guy is and he is very nice. He says that I should consider not doing a bulk scan but instead a higher price (per slide) flatbed scan. But we don't know if the bulk would be better or not and we're talking dozens and dozens and dozens of slides. So he suggests that at .80 per slide, we do them all bulk and check out the quality first. He says I'll get a link to check them out online when they are done. A week goes by. Another week goes by. I call and a woman says they'll get that to me. Finally I get a link and the slides look really crappy. Worse than when a bulk scan was done in 2003. How could the quality get worse? The slides have been in an archival quality box. I call and a guy says he's not sure. No one can of course confirm what the previous 2003 digitizers did; though I know they did bulk scan not flatbed. Perhaps they did some sort of "apply to all" adjustment of a filter or something? Either way, they say that they'll have someone call me back to think of a path forward. A week goes by. I then call and get the man who owns or manages the place. Very nice and attempts to help. I express my frustration about the time it's taking and that I have to keep calling them, seeing as I already paid. He said not to worry, he would definitely take a few slides, scan them on the flatbed and call me back with the comparison to my previous scans. A week and a half go by and I call to express my frustration that I still haven't heard from him. A woman says that she is so sorry, that the person who digitizes slides is there that day, but busy, so she'll have her call me within hours. Two weeks go by, I drive across town and I ask for my slides back. A woman gets them and asks "was everything done to your satisfaction." I say, "on the contrary nothing was done at all to my satisfaction." Not bitchy, not loudly, I just say it plainly as a fact. She hands me the slides and says, "oh, well here you go. Thank you." So that's my story of a two month long process of trying to get slides digitized. Was anyone rude? No. But did they communicate clearly? No. Mixed messages about possibilities. No calls back when they said. No finished work, after two months, nothing usable. And you would think after taking almost 100 dollars and a customer says they did not help at all, an employee might pause and ask what happened. Nope. That's Valley Photo Service, in my experience.
