MotoPhoto Bethesda - Bethesda, Maryland

We needed very specific types of pictures and they were able to provide them.

The staff are knowledgeable and provide great customer service.
The prices were a bit high before but have decreased recently so that’s a plus.

The only downside is the pungent odour that’s been in there for months now which makes for an uncomfortable experience.

I’ve been here twice and both times the customer service has been outstanding! Quality of photos is superb—happy I decided to try a small business rather than cvs or Walgreens. will definitely make this my regular go to when I need film developed!

I’ve used motophoto on numerous occasions for film development and scanning since I moved to MoCo but for the turnaround time and scan quality, it’s no longer worth the price for me.

The last two times I received film scans back were disappointing and clearly didn’t receive the attention it should get for light and color adjusting. For example, for a roll of cinestill 50d, which is a color roll with subtle teal tints, the scans I got from motophoto were entirely teal and green which took hours of editing on my end to look acceptable.

This is not a cheap hobby so I’d rather mail my film to elsewhere or drive from Gaithersburg to Full Circle in Baltimore.

Very happy customer on my first visit to MotoPhoto. Over the years I've been using another photo lab in Bethesda, yet on this occasion I noticed some defects like horizontal bands of uniform color in areas of an image for example like the sky with less texture variation. Minor defects at first glance, I had to look at the print real close to notice, and which might have done the job just fine for casual presentation... but I had a customer who was paying hundreds of dollars for signed Limited Edition prints.

Needless to say I didn't want my customer to complain, so I reached out to MotoPhoto hoping they could deliver better print quality. That they did! For the last minute pressure of shipping these 2 images out, I was also delighted they could handle my order within 24 hours. Very friendly staff too 🙂

I have been coming to this location for years to have my film developed. I always recommend MotoPhoto to all of my friends and Eric gives the best customer service every time! I have taken passport photos for friends and printed them here. The quality is great and they’re super accommodating with special requests like that. I’ve bought beautiful high quality picture frames here as well. Film takes about 4-5 days to receive via email unless you pay to expedite, which you’ll receive within the same day. Love this place!

I have only used their photo print services in large sizes (above 8x12). They are fast and when needed they had printed my images in the same day. Definitely they want to make sure that your print meets your expectations and if not, let them know and they will take care of it to your satisfaction. Their prices are also the lowest in the area.

Good customer service. Only thing is the film developing time takes a while
