I had an amazing experience here. I recently bought a vintage film camera and was looking for film. I brought it inside and the owner was able give me a quick crash course on how my camera works exactly and what film I should use. I highly recommend coming here for your photography needs.

We loved working with Photo Darkroom! We did family photos at Windandsea Beach in La Jolla. Bob and Susan make us feel so comfortable and captured great moments we'll remember forever! They made BEAUTIFUL prints that are hung in our home. Thank you so much!

I've been here several times to get my Canon repaired. I appreciate that Al is an experienced technician with Canon, so it makes it much easier to bring it here than take it/send it to Irvine for service. One of the biggest benefits of shopping local and working with a small shop is the personal expertise. I've enjoyed having that opportunity to tap into that and get feedback about how my camera should be operating and better shooting techniques. I'm confident that I'll continue to get repairs completed on time and at a price that is fair, with great customer service!

I found this two gems here! So happy and excited to try them out!

See all

In all this craziness of COVID, they were very nice and accommodating for a lens I needed to get fixed. Reasonable price and timely fix.

Jessica is absolutely amazing! She took pictures for our maternity session as well as our newborn…read moreson. A year later, she took our family's pictures for our son's one year birthday (cake smash) as well as for the holiday cards. She has a studio at her home with plenty of snacks while you do your sessions. It's also heated for those chillier winter months. The props she has are amazing and add a lovely style to her photos. She has a natural talent for finding perfect poses and the experience to get great angles. She also does locations other than her studio for photo shoots. For our maternity pictures we were at the beach and for our family pics we went to a hiking trail. She's able to taylor yo meet your needs. Her turnover to get pictures back to you is always quicker than she stated which is so lovely (especially when you want to get out holiday cards!) I highly recommend Jessica for her stellar services! You won't be disappointed! Loop

We were quite nervous, as our son isn't exactly always cooperative, but Jessica wasn't frazzled in the least, and just totally put our minds at ease. Even though it seemed like our son cried for most of the shoot (toddlers!), Jessica promised she got tons of great shots of him smiling, and she DID! We were so pleasantly surprised when we saw the photos, ha! Jessica was fantastic to work with from the very beginning, offering lots of help with wardrobe choices, location choices, etc. We couldn't be happier with the outcome of our photoshoot and can't wait to hire Jessica again for more photos :) Thank you, Jessica!!!!

Missy was absolutely incredible to work with and I am beyond pleased with her service. I am looking…read moreforward to the next opportunity to work with her and recommending all my friends who are looking for a photographer. We initially met for coffee, with no commitments, to talk face to face, get to know one another and discuss how we could work together. This was a really nice gesture and I knew right away this would be a good fit. At this point, we scheduled a time for the shoot and communicated via txt/email leading up to the date. Missy was very easy to communicate with and had a lot of great ideas/suggestions, but also totally open to my direction/vision. We ended up shooting in her studio, which was fantastic. It has an all white backdrop with natural lighting and the photos turned out stunning. She provided some props that I was not expecting, but really appreciated, additional accessory options and a completely professional and comfortable environment. She even gave me a few sneak peeks along the way and I had the pleasure of meeting the one and only Pepper Peters. After our shoot, she was very quick to turn around the gallery and I was so pleased with the way the photos turned out. It is really nice to have all the digital prints that I can now save and print myself. Missy also offered an additional service to print and package up the photos in a cool cigar box to present as a nice gift. I have nothing but positive comments about my experience with Miss and highly recommend her service!
