A new era of albums begins.

Built on our 90 years of experience, for today’s photographers.

Welcome to Atkins Lab, a full service photo print lab for professionals.


We are Australia’s oldest photographic lab. The same family have been doing this since 1936. This year is our 90th Birthday.

We make life easier for photographers and more beautiful for their clients.

Lifetime Guarantee since 1936

We offer a lifetime guarantee on all our products, from lay flat albums to gallery picture frames and fine art prints and all the goodies in between. When we say lifetime, it actually means something. We’ve been here for almost 90 years! Every day we make more products that will be in your client’s family for generations.

Does your print lab offer this?

Why?

We are Kate and Paul Atkins, the third generation husband and wife team to be at the helm of Atkins. We’ve dedicated our lives to the photographic industry and we’ve built our family and our business around it.

We live right above the lab with our two daughters and our dog, Frank—who we’re convinced is the most beautiful dog in the southern hemisphere. For us, running the lab isn’t just a job, it’s what we love, and our team of craftspeople are devoted to working with you as part of your business.

For 90 years, we’ve been perfecting the art of photographic printing and working to show off those prints in various ways. And still, every order we get is unique and our crew work tirelessly to ensure your vision comes to fruition.

We don’t just print photos—we bring your work to life, making sure every image tells the story you’ve captured. When you work with us, you're getting more than just prints; you're getting a partner who’s as passionate about your images as you are.
