Great lab & great staff! Would highly recommend to anyone serious about their work.

I have developed my film (mostly black and white) at this lab multiple times and highly recommend this place. Randy definitely knows what he is doing and negatives always look perfect.

Darkroom with Manager Randy is One of the Top three Professional labs in The United States. Their Black & White prints are Great!! And their scanning services from film to digital is perfect as well! That is why so many International Clients go to them as well.

Wholeheartedly recommend Randy and Darkroom for your oversize photo printing projects. I had no previous knowledge of the printing process or my options of paper, finishes, and resolutions. Randy guided me, gave good, concrete advise and got it printed for a fair price.

One of the best places to get your photo rolls developed in Miami, hands down. I've been getting them developed at D&D for several years, and they've always been quick to develop, affordable, and good quality.

They also do more stuff (printing, photography, etc) but I have little knowledge about that side of their business.

Randy is a master of his trade. There are very few people left in the business of photographic processing and printing that posess the skill and intererest in doing things the "old school" way. Just received my first prints from him and you can be SURE, that I would never go anywhere else! Amazing work!

Every step of the way with these people was an awful experience. Their website shows that they close at 6pm, so it was odd that when I got there at 5:20pm, they were fully closed and no one answered their phone. Fine, whatever, they have a dropbox outside and I left my roll there and called back the next morning to confirm.

I was surprised when they then tried to charge me an additional $2.50 for the privilege of having my scans emailed to me. I asked if I could just have them put on a USB drive when I picked up my film and they said no and that there was no other way for me to receive the scans. Essentially they were forcing me to pay an additional $2.50 than was listed, as this absurd charge for emailing scans is not listed on their website or order form, so I had no way of knowing that they would charge me that when I dropped off my film.

After some back and forth with the person who answered the phone, she reluctantly agreed to waive the email charge and noted that "no one else has tried to fight it"--good for me I guess for being the first customer to call out non-sense charges that were never agreed to.

When I called back a day later to confirm when it would be ready, Randy picked up the phone and, like many other reviewers on Yelp have noted, was not the least bit helpful and seemed annoyed that he had to speak to customers.

When I arrived to pick up the film, they had thrown the loose negatives in a paper envelope, instead of putting it in a sheet or film canister, so the film had been getting crushed and wrinkled sitting underneath their other orders.

At this point, I was just hoping the scans were OK. Wrong again. Complete trash. Despite describing their basic scans as 5MB scans on their website, each of my photos was around 1MB, which is just about the worst quality scan you can produce at home, much less for $19.00 from a professional.

Take your film somewhere else where your business and film are valued.

Wonderfully handled and wonderfully developed. At first, I admit I was a bit afraid some of the damage in my film was a chemical mishap (Really just a light leak.) And with that, full trust with my film has been placed with these guys. Rather than waiting a week or two for my scans to get to me from Walgreens (And no negatives.) These guys practically cost the same as Walgreens with your scans AND your negatives. Definitely the best around.
