Our Story · Since 1972
Three generations of printers in one building between the mountains and the coast. We grew up alongside the photographers we print for, and we still run the lab the way we always have: a real person on every order.
Five decades of printing
NC Tri-Color opened in 1972. We printed through black-and-white film, through C-41, through the digital wave, and now through whatever the AI era is becoming. The tools keep changing. How we treat the work hasn't.
What stays the same
01 — People
Every order is checked by hand before it leaves the building, and when you call, a real person picks up the phone.
02 — Quality
Photo prints come off a Fuji Frontier on genuine Fujicolor Crystal Archive paper.
03 — Service
Color correction, retouching, drop-shipping to your clients, sports and event packages, and free ICC profiles for every paper we print on.
