What customers say
When I moved to Austin, I quickly learned of Lago Vista as friends and coworkers had only good things to say about this place. Lago Vista has become my go-to spot for film and development. The staff is friendly and you simply cannot beat a 1-hour turnaround time.
Happy with the efficiency and quality of the photos they developed for me. I live in the area and had been curious. Dropped off 120 color film to develop and it was digitally sent to me around 2 hours later. Photos were an experiment with a 1950s Brownie and the lab did a great job with them.
Dropped off my film at around 1PM and got a link to see my photos at around 3:30PM! I had about 4 rolls of film as well. Very quick, good quality, fast and efficient!!❤️❤️
Incredibly fast and convenient, I dropped 3 rolls off at 2pm, digital copies were sent to my email within 1 hour and physical copies were ready within 2 hours. Very friendly staff as well!
