Whilst I was unable to…read moreget custom framing, it was a matter of days with a weekend in-between, they worked with me to get custom cut matting to fit a pre-made frame that worked really well for the two photos. They went beyond normal customer service to get these to me on a Saturday morning, and it was very much appreciated. I can't recommend Jen and the team at Picturesque in Billericay enough.

Before digital cameras really took off I regularly used Jessops to develop all of my disposable…read morecameras. I have always found the service to be very efficient and the staff helpful and professional. This was definitely the case recently when on honeymoon our digital camera died on us and appeared to wipe all of our honeymoon photos. After a frantic call to Jessop's we went down and they managed to recover all of our photos and load them onto a CD at no charge. The process took a few hours and not once did they moan and they completely sympathised with my upset. The manager was brilliant and when we wanted all the pictures printed they gave us a really good deal. It is always busy in there with people asking advice on different products and I have always found the staff very knowledgeable.

Whilst slightly (only a little though) more expensive than the main high street hobby store its compensated by the knowledge of the staff who are always more than happy to help.

Its the adult crafters equivalent of a toy store. The location is difficult of you don't drive but it's surrounded by lots of other little shops and hobby areas with a cafe and a restaurant on site as well.
