BWonW has a reputation for excellence.

Our clients come to us with a range of photographic projects, to which we apply our expertise, dedication, and artistry. We approach each project as a partner, working with our clients to produce and deliver cohesive and beautiful final results.

Our lab began in the mid-1980s in a tiny loft space on White Street in Lower Manhattan, where owner Sergio Purtell first set up shop after earning his MFA in Photography from Yale University. As the photographic medium has continued to evolve, so has our business. Our dedicated team of professionals, all photographers themselves, are knowledgeable in historical as well as contemporary trends, practices and techniques. We provide traditional darkroom silver gelatin printing, black+white and color C41 film processing, scanning, digital pigment printing, mounting and framing services in our studio in Bushwick, Brooklyn.
