Best Photo Shops In Washington Near Me

Gianina Lash: 100% recommend! came to them with a time-sensitive need for a battery charger for an older DSLR camera that we needed to use for an event 8 hours later. they helped us find a store that had the right type of charger in stock and charged the battery for us in the meantime. So impressed with their service and help when we were in a pinch!

Suzy Fitzgerald: I love District Camera! When I was living in DC this was the only place that I would get my film developed. Syed is the best, he is so friendly and answers all my camera and film questions! The scanning and development process is timely and the quality is very good. Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for somewhere to get film developed!

Haresh Mehta: The store without a doubt lives up to the Leica standard. No rush rush sales pressure, no up-selling, just a fantastic educated opinion from Leica Ambassadors. I met with Christopher, he helped me trade in my visoflex and get the new one, completed the paperwork for the service of my m10R, while I enjoyed browsing through their gallery and books. Happy to buy from here and revisit.

Ryan McArdle: Went here for an international passport photo - they made sure it met the standards perfectly and it was quick and easy. Definitely recommend.

Sarah Stover: Positive: Professionalism, ResponsivenessGreat service! I messed up an order and they were able to quickly reprint my photos for me very quickly. Very kind and professional.

Maggie Boys: Capitol Hill Frame and Photo did an excellent job for me. I needed 20" x 30" signs printed and mounted on foam core and I had a very tight turn around time. They worked really well with my designer and everything turned out perfectly for my event.

Sherry Garay: I am an amateur photographer and I used to drive out to Burke to another local camera shop. I decided to give Dominion a try, and I am so glad I did! This is a locally owned “mom and pop” business and it feels good to support a small local business, instead of putting more money in the pocket of a man who wants to play around in outer space. The staff at the store are super knowledgeable. One of them used to work for Canon and can tell you everything you need to know about Canon gear. They helped me make my decision on moving to a new mirrorless camera. I believe they are the only local shop that does their film developing on site. They also do black and white developing by hand. My prints look better than they have in years! They also sell an array of cool films to play around with. I picked up a roll of Dracula film from Romania. They also take passport photos and guarantee them as acceptable by the State Department. I also just found out their classes have started back up and they have a studio space upstairs they rent out. Seriously, if you are a pro photographer or just an amateur like me, then support this local business. This is a great camera shop, with just about anything you could possibly need, including a used gear bargain shelf!

Mehmet Esen: John is amazing with scanning photos! I could not believe the high quality reproduction of an old photo. And on the same day! I would highly recommend their service.

Lisa L: WOW! Just WOW! Had to schedule a graduation photo shoot from Texas for my daughter in DC. Not only did Damon make every step so easy but after talking with him on the phone and getting to know him a bit I was even more excited to work with him. He is exceptional...Literally, no other way to describe him. His work style, sense of humor, creativity, patience, you name it are all incredible. The pics we received were outstanding too! Keep in mind that we had no easy task for him... juggling a blended family, a morning when bad weather threatened and a senior pup, he juggled it all effortlessly and made for one of the best and most fun photo sessions I have ever been a part of. I had initially chosen Damon based on the ratings on here and boy they did not let me down. If you are looking for someone with imagination, great communication and a fantastic eye for capturing a special moment in your life book Damon now!!! You will NOT regret it! I only regret that he is so far away from us in Texas..... :)

Alan Cinsavich: I heard about this place from a colleague and the moment I stepped into the store I think I fell in love and went to heaven at the same time. For professional photography and videography this place has everything! And I mean everything! Camera bodies, lenses, flashes, lighting, backgrounds, bags, filters, accessories, camcorders to Cinema HD cameras and the list can go on. And even more amazing they have film camera and can also develop B&W and Color film! Robert the manager was super nice, had a great sense of humor and very helpful and knowledgeable. They also accept trade-in. I live in Maryland and while this place may be far from home for me I am definitely planning on making special trips to this Mecca of Camera Stores.

A B: Fun, out of the ordinary activity to do with friends. LOTS of different backdrop options, however, compared to some of the pictures online, some of them were pretty bare. But overall, worth the money and can definitely hit them all in the 1 hour allotted time.
