It's a great place to get ur photos. I'm being going for long as I can remember. Great staff great store. Good hours. Great location for eveyone. You must go

I have to say that I am disappointed in the 120mm colour processing that I had done at this spot. For the high price to process and scan only 2 rolls, the scans are very low quality. In my opinion the scans should be much higher than 72PPI for the price that you pay. If there is an option to have them scanned at a higher res, this should be mentioned at the counter. The scans are document quality. My negatives have scratches on them as well. I now have to pay for another service to re-scan my negatives. Huge waste of time and money.

Very professional and quick.

Great shop and selection. Very pricey

Evan McMaster

A fantastic locally owned resource for photographers in HRM and beyond. Two locations staffed by equally friendly and knowledgeable staff make sourcing material and supplies easy. Film development is a bonus and I've always been satisfied with their process.

Glenna Brown

It's so convenient to order print online! The site is user friendly and there are options to make personalized photobooks and have prints on mugs and keychains. The staff are helpful and kind

Lennard Kwapisz

Fast, easy, great

A friendly neighbourhood photo shop. Happy they have survived the digital revolution.

Easy Coast

Go to spot to get film developed in Halifax. Great customer service.

Omar S

Great service and very friendly owner. My pictures turned out great and to my specification. I highly recommend this place.

Katherine & Lucas Breda

Best place around to get photos of every kind printed!

GianMarco Del Rosario Vargas

Terrible experience with this company. I needed one photo printed. Total cost $3.99 , already above average but I was willing to pay to support a local business. To my surprise, they charged my card $11.99 indicating a minimum order value of $10.00. Why wouldn't just not allow orders below that value instead of surprising the costumers with hidden extra charges? Seems to me they intentionally are trying to rip people off. Shame on you guys.

Lilian Mara

Awesome, quick, efficient,

Jessica Matthews

one of the few places that develop 35mm film

Jason Rogers

Best breakfast I've had in the city... excellent service and great prices. I'll recommend this place to everyone.

Prathyusha K

Great passport photo service. Fast and efficient.

Kendall Wigoda

Very helpful

Navin Rai

Pricier than others but good quality and quick turnaround. Once you factor in the shipping cost that many other charge (I'm thinking Blacks), the price difference is much smaller. I submitted a job for 50 5x7 prints on luster paper. Took them about 4 hours to print, I recieved a very nice email telling me they were done. The online photo submission is easy to use. Staff is very knowledgeable and generally available for questions. The fact they can print onsite is super nice. I'll get more stuff printed here for sure.

Gander Toyota

Absolutely fantastic customer service. I'm in Newfoundland and was trying to hunt down a wireless microphone set and couldn't find it anywhere. I contacted Atlantic Photo Supply and told them what I was looking for. I spoke with Dave, he advised the set I was looking for was not an 'in stock' item for them, but that he could order me one and ship it out to me - of course I jumped on the chance. The price for the item and for the shipping was great! And the amount of time to receive it was very reasonable considering he had to order it first. Thank you guys so much, you really got us out of a jam!

Antwon Christian

Great customer service. Place is pretty small. Not much in store items in my opinion.

Arun Singla

Apart from professional, they are very generous too. Highly recommended.

Parthi Raj

Good service

Jin Lu

Good price and nice quick service!

Joy Yewon Cho

Staffs were really nice! I went to take passport pictures, and it was really quick(around a couple mins to print out). Plus, the quality was great.

Katie Enman

Great quality products and service. I also love how you can order your photos online and pick them up the next day.

Campbell McClintock

Suitable for most photography needs but the staff in my experience is generally complacent and will do the bare minimum to support customers.

Mel Lucas

Service is always quick and provided with a smile.

Horizon Eye Photography

I have been coming here for the last year to get my photos printed! The service he’s is top notch as well as the quality!!

Glen Whelan

If you print photos, print them here. The best.

blair macleod

Great visit

Peter Church

Excellent local photo supply shop. The quality of my prints were way better than the big box stores. Friendly staff, great value and curb side pickup available

Sophie O

I've always received great customer service here, however I recently had an Australian passport photo taken here which was rejected by the consulate. There was too much light on the sides of my face (obvious when I compared it to example photos) and pixelation down the middle of the print. I had to pay for new photos in Toronto. I contacted the store to see if a refund was possible but when I told them the consulate hadn't returned my photos to me (but I had my receipt) they stopped replying my emails. I also had photos done here for my permanent residency application, which I won't hear back on for at least a year, so I'm now worried those photos will be rejected as well. Because of my experience I wouldn't recommend them for official photos (passport, PR, etc)

David McDougall

I could not ask for a better place to shop! They provide top notch service even after the sale. I was looking for a wide lens. I gave them a call and they had the lens I was looking for in stock and even at a better price than I was expecting. Even with the pandemic going I was able to go to the store for a no contact pick up. I had an issue editing my pictures and they were awesome at helping me figure out my issue. I can't say Thank you enough.

I am so pleased with their help and knowledge. They are outstanding and I love walking into the Dartmouth Store as they are willing to help, advise and offer what is the best value for me and my level of experience. They are there to help, coach and build value.

Raegan Zinger

Quick service, and very helpful staff. Went somewhere else 3 times for a passport photo, and never had the employee in to do it. Went to Atlantic Photo once.... There and gone with the passport photo in 5 minutes. Can't beat that.

Sosep Hatfield

Will be returning here!

Pethrona Russell

Professionals! And if the passport photos are incorrect they'll redo them for free.

Jon Grove

Great staff

Lind

Fast service with quality prints.

Jean-Mornay du Plessis

Fast, friendly service getting passport pics taken

Sadie Russell

Fault USBs and long turn around times for film development. Staff are nice, but unhelpful since development is done out of house. Faster and more reliable to ship film out of province.

Sergei Shirokov

Very nice store, friendly customer service.

elissa deleon

If you go down town Halifax there is a big plastic wave that you can see and climb.

(Translated) It is very expensive. (Original) 엄청 비싸다

Aidan Cota

Great customer service.

Dennis Beauchamp

Fantastic service

Michael R Murphy

The last C-41 colour process location in town! And downtown-not out in isolated locations like the big national photo chain store.

Joseph Allen

Very friendly experience. Very easy do deal with for getting passport photos. I think it was $23.00 taxes in.

Veronica Jorna

Got passport pictures taken here even though it was more expensive because I wanted to support local business. The person working told me to wait a half hour before looking at them to prevent smearing but two hours later when I got home I took them out and the ink smeared everywhere anyway making them useless.

Tom Grantham 999

A great place to have pics of pics done . Very knowledgeable and very friendly and helpful. And very reasonable prices. ????????

Sharon Knowles

I had old negatives developed here, and I'm very happy with the quality of the pictures I received, knowing there is still a place I can bring film to be developed!

Chas Allen

The best place to get your prints done locally. Their online features function flawlessly and are easy to work with. Priced adjust as you go based on quantity. I've had hundreds of prints produced here of varying sizes, and I've never had an unreasonable wait and I have always been satisfied by the packaging and quality of my orders.

Kevin Le Blanc

Really neat items

r brooking

Only sell quality products

Bobbie Savoy

Very friendly staff. Incredibly helpful during very difficult times. Will definitely only go to them for all my picture needs

casey fulton

Fantastic service - you can't buy film here in the countryside and Covid restrictions prevents us visiting HRM so I bought 3 rolls online and they arrived practically the next day !!

Fatima Al-bashadi

5 stars deserved

Ashley H

Fast, efficient, friendly enough.

Olivier Rohrbacher

The place to go for paper photos.

Penny Longley

GreT service. Very friendly

Becky Holder

I had my passport photo taken here. The photo came out clear and professional looking. I was in and out within 10 minutes. Friendly service and reasonably priced.

Neil Kehler

This is the only place to develop film in Halifax, so they could easily have you by the *cough* zoom lens, but thankfully they abstain. The prices are mostly fair, not cheap, not extravagant. I usually get my film developed and scanned, and the scans come out great. The turnover time is between 6 days and 4 weeks... typically closer to 12 days. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable, once they waited 10 minutes after closing for me to pick up my photos. Love that. They carry several standard flavours of film at standard rates (except the 20$ a roll portra 400), as well as the occasional uncommon roll. I can really only comment on the film, but the rest of the store looks great for the digital photographer too.

Great service here
