Who runs this joint?
Meet Paul and Kate Atkins
Atkins.
Oldest photo lab in Australia, but we still look amazing.
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 over 85 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.
