What happens to my negatives?
We offer to cut and sleeve your negatives in pergamine archival files at an extra cost of 0,50€ per roll. Alternatively we will archive the uncut rolls safely for up to one year.

Once your order is fully processed, you can pick up the negatives from the lab in person or have them mailed back to you.
