Super nice guys and if you want to get Australian passport photos they are the guys to go to!! They are recommended by the Australian Consulate.These camera shops are a dying race and they need to be supported.Just to be clear though, their hour are not so normal. 11.30-6.

Great local store. Privately owned - not a chain - so you get real service! The owner has worked in photography in Santa Monica since I was in college so he knows his stuff. located near the Pier and shopping district this is the best for friendly service

Great service and quality prints/film development from the team here! The owner is super friendly and is always ready to help you with questions. He even ran out to our car after I had left the store to let me know the film I was asking about had just come in. I’ve had about 4 rolls of film developed here and they are top quality. Very cool camera bag straps in store too 😁

Small shop in a small shopping center but the staff is very helpful and very knowledgeable about cameras in general and their products sadly they were out of what I needed when I went. Will be back again for sure

Amazingly competent photographer!This place is my go-to for passport photos! I have been coming here for over 15 years. The photographer is a man of few words but his professionalism and perfection in his work is something more individuals need to learn from.You will never be disappointed with the results.
