Friendly and Community Focused Professionals

Easily accessible development studio on Sneinton Market Avenues. Endlessly helpful and positive team of industry professionals, eager to engage with creative tips or hands on knowledge to improve your craft. A hardworking team that's community driven, they're my regular film processor for those reasons

The team at LensFayre are fantastic. They’re all extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I went in regarding a dev only order for 5 rolls of film. The price was extremely good and the turn around was rapid with the negatives ready for collection 24 hours later!

Was promised my film would be developed…

The staff here are very polite, professional and friendly, and I usually am extremely satisfied with the service, but I was promised my most recent film would be developed by the end of the day on December 2nd, but it still has not been received, two weeks after the purchase, so I feel somewhat disappointed this time around. I would overall recommend them, but I perhaps wouldn’t rely on the date they promise is the latest, and be willing to follow up with them.
