"I had some old film rolls and a few high-res headshots that needed professional printing, so I…read moredecided to give Fototechnika a try after hearing good things. Finding the place was a little tricky at first (navigation got me a bit confused), but I'm glad I stuck with it. The staff here really knows their stuff. I spoke with them about color correction for some specific prints, and they were patient enough to walk me through the options without making me feel rushed. The turnaround time was pretty reasonable--not instant, but they definitely prioritize quality over speed, which I appreciate. My prints came out crisp and the color balance was spot on, way better than what you'd get at a typical pharmacy photo counter. Only giving 4 stars instead of 5 because the pricing is a little on the premium side, and as I mentioned, the location isn't the most obvious if it's your first time visiting. But honestly, for the level of professional service and the final result, it's worth the extra few bucks. I'll definitely be coming back here for my next project."

They've helped several family members and friends with important photographs, and they converted several rolls of slides to digital images for me. Their work and products are high quality, and it's great to still have a local company specializing in photo prints.

Nothing wrong with them, I called and they answered all my questions. But I'm making a cinematic documentary and needed to be sure I was making all the right choices. For what I needed Ai said Photo Digitizer was the better option and Ai was right on. What an extremely positive experience. Besides using his 20 years of experience, he visually showed me some things that helped me understand what he was saying. He's patient, extra helpful, kind and cares about your project. I have more to bring him for my movie in regards to photos and videos so I'm gathering them now. He's extra organized in his space, how he backs things up and ways he gets everything to you. He had exceeded what I was looking for! Thanks Prahlad!

I found this local photo shop and decided to give it a try. The owner Prahlad answered my call and was incredibly pleasant and polite. I explained our situation, and although we could only afford to do one picture, he assured me he would help. To my surprise, he completed the draft to final version in just a couple of hours and even touched up the second picture free of charge. His generosity truly touched us, and we are grateful for his kindness during this challenging time. This shop is more than just a business; it's a place filled with compassion and understanding. I highly recommend this photo shop for anyone in need of their services!

This is not a heavily reviewed category on Yelp so I briefly read the reviews and picked Chao. Easy to find on 3rd St at the beach. It's in the same plaza as Metro Diner but at the other end. We popped in on a Saturday and were promptly greeted and attended to. We were able to look around a bit but also received some suggestions on what the staff thought would look nice which is always appreciated. We had it narrowed down to a few options and then talked amongst ourselves to make the final selection. The nice young lady entered the order into the computer and the manager or owner stepped in and told her to apply a discount which was super cool. They told us our order would be ready in a couple of weeks and sure enough they called on time to inform us it was ready. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff, super selection of frames to choose from and the quality of the work was terrific!

Since new phones nowadays are four figures, I decided to get the screen replaced. The gentleman at this establishment quoted a repair for $89.99 and about 30 minutes. I was slightly dubious he'd be able to get it done so quickly as he seemed to be quite busy with several customers as I was leaving and I think he was the only one working there, but my wife and I went and grabbed some lunch while we waited. Not 25 minutes went by before we received a text that my phone was ready. Not only is the repair flawless, but he also threw in a screen protector for free that I had declined when he offered it at a $10 upcharge when I dropped the phone off. The screen replacement was a little pricier than some quotes I'd received from other phone repair places, but with the convenient location, impressive turnaround time, and quality of the repair, it made it well worth it.
