LATITUDE Chicago

The best place in Chicago to get your film developed. I have used a few studios in Chicago to get my film developed and scanned. For one reason or another, I came away from the other places unsatisfied. This is not the case with Latitude. The staff is incredibly nice. Its an easy location to get to. Their turn around time is really good. And most importantly, the results are fantastic. I came back from a trip to Japan and dropped off 9 rolls with them. I had been planning this trip for years, and getting good results from my film photography was really important to me. I got the scans back from Latitude in just a few days (mind you I dropped off a lot of film), and they even refunded me for a roll that ended up being blank. The results of their development and scans left me emotional. You spend so much time shooting, reading light, and composing film, and you want those results to be nice. Latitude did an excellent job providing me with images that will last a lifetime. They even talked me down from getting unnecessary upscales to my images that saved me a lot of money. You can trust your film to be developed and scanned here. I did, and the results are truly incredible.

Working with LATITUDE was a dream come true. Keanna and the team took great care to make sure my prints turned out exactly how I wanted. They are also very meticulous with their printers which a great experience after having had prints from other places where the color tones were off. As an artist, I felt heard and respected and will definitely continue to work with them for all of my printing needs. As someone who is very picky with my files, I was thrilled that LATITUDE matched and exceeded my expectations. Plus, excellent customer service. Highly recommend!

If you’re a photographer looking to buy film or get your film developed/scanned, I highly recommend not wasting your time at Latitude. Their film fridge is almost empty—no Portra 400 or 800, for example. Developing alone (no scans included) takes 5-7 days, and they falsely advertise that they’ll develop and scan your film if you purchase it from them.

My family held an Art Show for my father , who died 20 years ago. Latitude did the prints we had made from the original pictures, charcoals, oil, and acrylics. Keanna and her team were unbelievably helpful and did their work to perfection! I would recommend this organization for any of your Artistic needs. We auctioned off the prints for a camp for people with disabilities and it was a resounding success. Thank you!

I loved my experience with Latitude. I had a very small job but they treated me like a VIP at every step along the way. They are terrific and produced a high quality result.

What more can one say about Latitude that hasn’t already been said? This is an indispensable resource and community space for photographers and artists in the city. Staff make the printing process a breeze. Go here!

So impressed by the sweet and competent folks working the front desk! Big Thanks to Diego and Ash for answering my questions, recommending an additional place for developing B&W film, and for making an exception for extra quick processing. I won’t forget y’all! :)

Cool space, fabulous work, and even better community! Highly recommend Latitude for anything from casual to exhibition quality print or film dev. Lots of cool people to learn from, like Keanna!

This is a nonprofit printing service for artists. Their service is excellent and their print quality is excellent and really low cost. They also have classes in case you would like to do the work yourself. The only downside is that this is a very busy area and parking can be a challenge.

Great staffs - very helpful with orders. Film developing is super fast (1-3 biz days). Good quality.

Latitude is a great place to make photo prints, film scan, and hang out with photo people!

I needed to a have photo cropped and then enlarged to 8x10 to display next to the urn with my brother's ashes at hit funeral. Of course this all had to be arranged on-line, and I did approve what they sent me. But when I picked up the photos my extreme disappointment was evident. Alex saw how upset I was very graciously offered to redo the order while I waited, at no cost. This is stellar customer service!

I had a super last minute request to get a picture for my mom printed for Mother's Day and could not find a place that could get it done on time. I had a tip from J&S printing who told me to call Latitude and that's what I did. Caitlin was beyond gracious and helpful and while I called late on Friday night (when they were about to close) she said she'd have it ready the early the next day. (Everywhere else told me 3-4 days). That may have been Latitude's normal timeline but I could tell they were trying to be helpful and because of that my Mom will be super happy and I will definitely go back to them again.
