Attention Everyone
We are going on our annual road trip vacation very soon (August 1st to the 12th). We will be developing film Now until July 30th. We will be closed July 31st to get ready for our trip and leaving August 1st. We will be returning August 12th and will be open for business August 13th.
While we are closed we CAN NOT provide status update and no film will be developed. However you can still place your order on our website and ship the film to us. Our receiving department will remain open so your film can be received safely. We encourage you to place your order while we are away. We usually give out some freebies for orders places while we are closed. Upgrades such as increased scanning resolutions, sample prints and even some free 35mm film is possible as samples. We will be available to chat in the evenings by email or Instagram @needfilmdeveloped.

Over the past few months we have had many ask if we develop Seattle Film Works film or C-22 or Kodachrome K14. The answer to all the above is YES! However there are very long turn around times (2 to 4 weeks) because we prioritize our fresh C-41, B&W and ECN-2 Developing. All other film types have a lower priority such as E6, C-22 and K14.

About our Lab:
Our lab is OPEN, Our normal business hours are from 6pm to 10pm Mon-Thurs and 10am to 10pm Most Weekends. Both Andrew (owner) and Rachel (Manager) hold Full time Jobs from 7am to 5pm Monday-Friday in unrelated fields. Both of them love film and started this lab to make film photography as affordable as possible. Both of them believe in low cost high quality work. Quality is more important than speed to them so please be patient. This business is their way of helping the film community. However unlike a normal lab, their lab is operated in their free time. Life often gets in the way with unexpected events and sometimes they take a Saturday off and do some of their own film photography. So the turn around time is an estimate for a single roll or a few rolls. Larger orders or multiple film types in a single order will take a whole lot longer. Please keep this in mind when sending film. For those who have been sending them film for a while now, Thank You. For new customers, Welcome!! Andrew and Rachel love film and they want to help you love it too!! Please feel free to email them for questions. Andrew is on Instagram (@needfilmdeveloped.com) for chatting, he can’t give status updates, Please email them for updates on your order, THANK YOU!!
