Everything is reserved via only to avoid overbooking of the same lens which is very much appreciated! The gentleman that works there always gives me good advice about camera since I have a beginner camera right now and I'm learning before I decide to upgrade to a mirrorless. I rented a 24-105 EF lens for my canon for my trip to Argentina and Chile and I took some pretty great photos of landscape and even portrait. I'm going to be renting again for my upcoming trips! The price is also very friendly and super easy to pick up and return.

Just as I almost forgot how to use my 35mm SLR film camera (remember those??), I signed up for a…read moreBlack and White Darkroom class at the Reston Community Center Photo Lab with my boyfriend. I have had darkroom experience in the past, but my boyfriend was a complete newbie. As a resident of Reston (small district #5), the 4-session course was only $40 and included all chemicals and 4 additional hours of darkroom time. We had to purchase our own paper, film sleeves and provide our own cameras and film. The class was a great introduction to darkroom techniques, from developing your film, making/developing prints, and how to improve your final print. It did not, however, include instruction on proper exposure of your film or field techniques (though the RCC periodically offers such courses separately). The instructor, Sandra, was a sweetheart and did a fantastic job getting everyone started. I do have to warn all of you digital camera converts... you can only take 24-36 shots on a single roll of film... so point and shoot with care!!!! As for the lab, it's a great secret in Reston... Although tiny and beginning to show its age, it has everything you need to develop and print your BW and Color negatives. The Open Lab has hours on Saturdays, Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays (Color processing is not offered every day)... check out the website for an exact schedule. You must call ahead to make a reservation to ensure that Sandra is around and to make sure that it doesn't get too crowded. I've never had a problem reserving a spot for the same day. So here's what earned the lab a 5-star rating in my book... 4 hours at the open lab will only set you back $7!!!! That's less than a breakfast at starbucks!!!! Do note that if you don't live or work in small district #5 (Reston), the fees are a little more... $10. Still not bad!!! Happy printing!

We stopped by this store while in the area and checked out their selection, specifically the M 11. The Leica D-Lux collab with A Bathing Ape was cool, too! The store also carries pre-owned and all the accessories; they even have a rotating art gallery that features photographers that use the Leica cameras, so that's pretty cool - you just need to register in advance for specific events. We were welcomed warmly by Noah - he was very informative, patient, and answered all our questions; he let us try the the cameras out and shared the different models that would best fit our needs. Beautiful store and a great staff - be sure to check this place out! +ask for Noah! +limited restricted metered parking and garage parking

She was able to assist us with everything we needed and demo how to work the camera. It's easy like 123. Haha! It's really a click of a button. We opt for the 40min shoot. It came with 2 4x7, one 5x7, editing and digital photos. We were celebrating our little one first birthday. Out of all the back drop we went for the beach look just because he's a summer baby. They had a variety of props that went well! We decided to bring our own beach chair and beach towel including a mini cake. The photos turned out great! For $121, I saved myself $500-$700. Hassle free from too many demands and location meet up that can cost extra. Addition to this, they provide a ready room and for babies, they have a changing pad with supplies. Thank you for taking care of families! Definitely will come back for more services.
