NOT ALL LABS
ARE CREATED
EQUAL.
We built Relics because we were tired of "good enough." Your film deserves a workflow designed for archivists, not just speed. We don't automate quality—we engineer it.
Scanner Type
Noritsu / Frontier
Chem Check
Daily Intervals
Clinical Chemistry
Great color starts in the tank. We run daily control strips to ensure strict C-41 compliance. No muddy shadows, no color shifts—just clean, archival negatives.
Crystal Clear Scans
We use professional lab scanners to make your photos look sharp and detailed. We scan your images with natural colors and contrast, giving you a "clean slate." This ensures you have a high-quality image that is ready to post or easy to edit with your own style.
The Human Element
Every frame is density-corrected by a trained technician. We wear gloves. We cut carefully. We respect your negative as the master file it is.
