Choosing a Professional Film Processing Lab I'm just getting started trying to sell photos (seniors, children, weddings, family portraits, etc.). I would like to have professional quality proofs and enlargements to offer my clients. I live in a small rural area in Missouri about 60+ miles from the nearest large city. Can anyone refer me to a reputable, reasonably priced lab that I can use via mail if need be?

I am new to photography and the digital world. But I just received my 2nd order from mpix.com, I was very satisfied, they print on professional paper, color was great, fast turn around, several choices, no complaints. They do have a lab for professional photographers, you have to have a tax ID# to use them, (which I don't have yet) you can find them at millerslab.com. Let me know what you decide and GOOD LUCK!!

Thanks for responding! I took a look at both labs. I think I'll try mpix.com. Which paper have you tried (the Endura and/or the Metallic?). Did you send them digital files or film or both? Have you used the 'Lustre' finish? Did you have them re-touch anything for you? Thanks, Regina

Regina, I tried the Endura, one thing about it, your entire order has to be the same paper type. I sent digital files. I tried the "Lustre" finish on one print,to see how it was, seemed to be a good thing. (my dad saw the picture the day I got it in, and he had to have it). I had the matboard put on an 8X10 just to check it out, it was great also. I did not have them re-touch anything, I just got photoshop 7, so I tried that myself. If you think of anything else, let me know. Not one complaint with the lab. Super fast. PS do you shoot film or digital??
