Take It Easy Lab
An independent, family run
film lab & community
We’re Take It Easy, a family-run indie film lab based in Leeds. Founded in September 2020 by cousins Liam Henry and Joe Singleton, along with partner Nick Baines, we’ve grown into a close-knit team of friends who’ve developed hundreds of thousands of rolls of film.
We offer both mail-order and drop-in services, and we’re all about delivering the best possible film experience to everyone. But we’re more than just a lab, we’re an inclusive community space where photographers of all levels can connect, learn, and grow through events, talks, and shared resources.
Whether you're just starting out or have years behind the lens, we’re here to support you and be the lab you can rely on.

Love these guys so much, always flawless service and very transparent about processing times! I used to bring them film when I lived locally but now I mail it from London - still the best!!
★★★★★
Excellent film lab, scans come out great. Whatever post processing they do is really good, I very rarely feel the need to adjust the scans when I get them back. Support your local lab (even if it's not local)

Take It Easy Community
Building an analogue community
At Take It Easy, we’re all about building a welcoming and creative community, and we do that in all kinds of ways.
Each month, we host workshops at our Leeds lab, including photo socials where you can share your work, connect with others, and get inspired. These socials aren’t about harsh critique, they’re supportive, encouraging spaces where we help each other grow and develop our practices in a positive way.
We also run introductory workshops on film photography, covering everything you need to know to get started with film cameras. Whether you're completely new to film or just looking to learn the basics, these sessions are a great place to begin.
On top of that, we organise photo walks, social events, exhibitions, and more, always with the goal of bringing people together through a shared love of photography.
01
Workshops & socials
Learn something new, share your work and meet other photographers at the lab.
02
Supporting new photographers
We’re proud sponsors of The Photographer’s Gallery Develop programme for emerging creatives.
03
Walks, shows & more
Photo walks, exhibitions, talks and other excuses to get photographers together.
We’re proud to work with
Friends, collaborators and organisations we’re proud to support.
