Over multiple purchases, he's helped me pick out a range of cameras and lenses (both new and used), and every recommendation has been spot-on. What I appreciate most is his advice. As I've gotten deeper into sports and portrait photography, Brad has taken the time to explain tradeoffs, suggest practical setups, and make sure I understood why a certain lens/body made sense for what I'm shooting. No pressure, just genuinely helpful guidance from someone who knows his craft. Highly recommend asking for Brad if you're shopping at the Melrose location.

Their developing work is as good as ever, but the quality of their scans has been significantly…read morereduced. I first noticed with my last batch that the 135 scans they did, supposedly at "full resolution" were noticeably pixelated, with jagged edges visible at 100%. I was surprised, since this problem was not present the scans this same lab had done for me in years past. I called and they agreed to re-scan them on a different machine, which ended up producing scans of about 1/4 the resolution of the original job. I finally talked to the manager of the lab who admitted that they deliberately reduced the quality of the scanner's outputs, so even though they bought a machine that can do impressive 30MP files, they no longer collect that much data off the film. They refunded me, but refused to change the settings on their machine. So even though you're still paying the full cost for "high res" scans, you're getting significantly less quality now. This isn't just lazy, it's bad business practice. Their lab work is fine, but if you're looking for quality scans, look elsewhere. Their results are garbage, and they don't even care.

LensPro always gets the new models quickly, and they have it ready early in the day for pick-up. Whenever there was an issue or delay, they went out of their way to track down the shipment or get the item from another location.

Their in-person customer service is great and friendly, and a much more enjoyable experience than going to that other nearby company (which has now closed).

Tomoko proved herself to be more than just our photographer, but also a friend.

I reserve compliments for the very best and Tomoko recorded my favourite day with care and professionalism, the best I could ask for. Not only did she capture the major moments, she also took time to take take photos of the candid joy through out the wedding. I can truly say that I recommend Tomoko to anyone who wants to remember their big day with smiles throughout their marriage.

Before our first meeting, we told her we'd be having a traditional Pakistani wedding that would be spread over two days. We were very pleasantly surprised when she came to the meeting well researched about Pakistani wedding customs and came prepared with great questions. We met another time in person before the wedding to look over the Venu and discuss the schedule for the wedding. On the day of the wedding, Tomoko and her husband Steve did a fantastic job covering the entire event including my preparations(makeup etc), photo shoot with my husband and the reception. They were both very involved in the events and actually reminded my mother about a ceremony which we were supposed to have later during the reception but had forgotten about. It was wonderful working with Tomoko and I high recommend her to anyone looking for quality work and a friendly and dedicated team.
