Dickerman Prints
Providing world-class photographic services since 1996
Our Story
In the mid 1990′s, Seth Dickerman moved to San Francisco and opened Dickerman Prints, an all-optical custom photo lab. At that time, Dickerman Prints made fiber-based black and white prints to 40″x50”, and type C-prints to 30″x45”.
Seth’s enduring love of working with light and photosensitive papers kept him printing in the traditional darkroom until he began experimenting with the digital printing system at Robyn Color, an established San Francisco lab.
When Robyn Color closed at the end of 2007, Seth purchased their digital printing equipment and moved Dickerman Prints to our first space in San Francisco’s Mission District.
In August of 2012, we relocated to our current home, a beautiful, light-filled lab space in the South of Market district.
We produce prints which best articulate what the photographer wants to say.
Our expert staff employ the craft, skill, and perseverance to make the imagined manifest itself in the finished print.
While our methods may have changed, the goal remains the same.
