Where to Get Your Film Photos Processed in & Outside Metro Manila

Back when I first picked up my film camera in early 2020, I imagined filling the rest of the year with memories worth capturing — but like many others, that plan was cut short. Fast forward to today, and I’m finally back to shooting and processing film more regularly — and it feels amazing to bring those moments to life again.

Luckily, a number of trusted film labs in Metro Manila are not only open in 2025, but also offering better, faster services than before. Whether you're a longtime film enthusiast or just getting into the hobby, these photo labs offer reliable processing, scanning, and even same-day options for your rolls.

Here’s where you can develop your film photos in Metro Manila and beyond — no fuss, all heart.

Where to have your film photos processed & scanned

Sunny16 Lab

Sunny16 Lab is well-loved by many of the metro’s film fanatics — their excellent quality film processing and customer service are what keep their clients coming back for more! While their lab in Quezon City is currently closed for walk-ins, they’re open for paperless ordering via their website. The great news? Orders are open to those both inside and outside of Metro Manila!

Their services include processing, scanning, and printing for various types of film: 35mm, 120, 110, and APS. Processing is available for both coloured and black and white film, as well as for disposable cameras. 

Be sure to watch out for their announcements, as they accept a limited number of slots every few weeks to ensure that all orders are accommodated. Scans can take up to 15 days to get to you — but receiving that email will certainly be worth the wait!

Fotofabrik

Whether you’re in or outside of Metro Manila, Fotofabrik is ready to attend to your film-related needs. They’re currently accepting orders for processing and scanning — all you need to do is fill up their virtual order form, pay online, and send over your rolls via express delivery or courier!

Fotofabrik processes both coloured and black and white film; in addition, they also develop 110, 16mm, 126, APS films, and rolls from disposable cameras at no extra cost. If you make use of a type of film that’s out of the ordinary, this particular lab may be the perfect option for you.

Wonder Photo Shop

Wonder Photo Shop has reopened several branches in and outside of Metro Manila — and they’re accepting walk-ins! In line with their safety protocols, they’ll only be welcoming a limited number of customers at a time; they have a no mask, no entry policy in effect as well.

They develop, scan, and print photos; both coloured and black and white films are accepted. Those who live near SM Megamall and SM Sto. Domingo are in luck, as their stores once again offer same-day processing and scanning services! Drop-offs are also accommodated at Wonder Photo’s other open branches, with a waiting time of about two to three weeks for processing.

Note: Make sure to bring a USB flash drive where they can store your photos; otherwise, you’ll have to pay an extra fee for a CD!
