I don't quite know where the past year has gone but already the six week school holidays are upon us!

As we are a small family run business, we do have a bit of juggling to do at this time of year.

PHOTO HIPPO LAB will be operational throughout the six weeks EXCEPT for Friday 7th August when we will be closed all day. Our working hours may be erratic throughout the holidays - early mornings, late nights etc. We will be working hard to ensure that our turnaround times aren't affected too much 👌

Our LOCAL SHOP - THE PRINT STATION will be closed for holidays from 2pm on Friday 31st July until 10am on Monday 17th August.

Any queries, please email us - [email protected]

Thank you for your continued support ❤

We’re really excited to let you know that the new Y2K inspired Kodak Charmeras will be arriving very soon, but only in limited numbers!

The 1980s versions sold really fast back in December, so we’re expecting these to go quickly too.

They’re £35 + £4.50 postage.
Just email us at [email protected] if you’d like to reserve one.

Swipe through to see the new designs and the different frames + filters you can play with 😊

Mail order isn't affected, the lab will be running today. The lab is extremely busy at the moment so orders are taking longer than usual.

Hi everyone! 😊

Sorry for the lack of posts lately! We’ve been really busy with family commitments and ongoing refurbishments in the lab, so things have been a bit hectic!

Due to this, we need to close on the following days this month:

Photo Hippo Lab will be closed on Thursday 19th February and Friday 27th February.

Our local shop The Print Station will be closed on Thursday 26th February and Friday 27th February.

We’ll be back to normal as soon as we can.

We’ve never really been great at social media (you’ve probably noticed!), but once the refurb is finished we’re hoping to post a bit more regularly. It would be lovely to share some photos of the new lab setup and some behind the scenes videos of the day to day in the lab.

Thanks so much for your patience and continued support ❤️

Hi everyone!

Not long now until our lab closes for the festive break!
Our last day in the lab this year is Tuesday 23rd December. 🎄🎁 ☃️

Any films dropped off or posted to us before 12pm on Tuesday will be processed and ready before we close (B&W and C41 only).

Anything that arrives after that will be safely looked after and processed when we reopen in the New Year.

Here’s to a busy final few days of 2025! 🙌🏻

Thank you for your continued support ❤️
