Every roll comes back with a digital contact sheet. In our iOS app you can mark it up with a wax pencil: circle the selects, heart the frames for the couple, cross out the misses. Then share the gallery.
Daylight for the ceremony, open shade for the first look, golden hour for portraits, tungsten at the reception, flash on the dance floor. Each one shifts color in a different direction.
Batch scanning applies one correction to the whole roll. Our scanning team corrects each frame for the light it was shot in, so skin tones hold from the aisle to the last dance.

How your wedding is handled
Hands on, from the first roll to the album.
A wedding is one shot. Here’s who handles it in our lab.
01Developed in our own lab
Every roll from the day is developed in-house, in our own lab, and hung to dry.
02A person on every frame
Our scanning team corrects density, color and tone frame by frame, for each kind of light.
03Album prints by hand
Darkroom prints enlarged by hand from your negatives, for the couple’s album or the parents’ wall.

Standard turnaround follows the live queue, shown at checkout and in the banner on our site. Very Nice members go into the priority queue, with standard Noritsu scans of C-41 and B&W back in under 5 business days. Super Nice includes rush: 1 business day for C-41 and B&W. Rush can be added to any C-41 or B&W roll.
Portra 400 is the all-rounder. Reach for Portra 800 in low light and at the reception, Portra 160 for outdoor ceremonies and golden hour, and HP5 Plus or Tri-X for black and white. We develop and scan all of them in 35mm and 120.
2K is our standard scan, good for galleries and smaller prints. 4K is for large prints and heavier editing, and comes with TIFF files (16-bit on Noritsu, 8-bit on Frontier). Pro Scans are finished by hand, frame by frame, for the frames that matter most.
Yes. Every gallery has its own link, so your couple can browse, search and download their photos.
