“The Photo Lab has always been my favorite place to serve the community. From the first time I've been in the Photo Lab, it's always been such a warm welcome and a pleasant experience. Brian is truly the best.”

"The Photo Lab is an amazing place where we have gotten to learn some awesome techniques and have fun experiences, from developing photos with coffee or dressing up for our annual creepy Halloween shoot. We are always excited to hear about what new and exciting programs they have come up with."

“The Photo Lab is an amazing safe space to be able to express your ideas of beauty and meaning. It is transformative as it allows individuals to express a freedom of expression that so few people get to experience. I highly recommend it for everyone!”

"Great people. Willing to help. If you have any bike problems, come to them as they will easily help you and show you so you can learn! They also have good bike prices!"

"Wonderful team of folks who clearly care about cycling and the community. I highly recommend stopping every now and then, you never know what you may find!"

"What a WONDERFUL experience. The people that work there are all super nice and volunteer much of their time just to help the biking community. The selection of used bikes that look new was beyond my expectations. Whatever you want, chances are they probably have it. Highly recommend going, even if just to see the cool old building, the famous Pajama Factory."

"Awesome bicycle shop in the Pajama Factory. The people who own this are wonderful people. The children in the neighborhood come there because the nice gentleman who fixes the bikes teaches the kids how to work on them. They had so much pride when they told me that they work there. We need more places in the community like this where the children feel they have a mentor and feel safe. It takes a village. The prices here are awesome as well and there are many parts to fix your bike."

"The Factory Works Photo Lab is well-equipped and highly functional for both the beginner and the most experienced photographer. And Brian Spies is both highly knowledgeable, creative, and helpful. Great humor, too!"

"Factory Works is very supportive of TLC's mission and invited our clientele to come participate in a photo lab workshop for four weeks. The clients responded very well to the workshop and felt valued and appreciated by Factory Works staff and mission. Factory Works is an asset to our community."

"The chance for learning about photography and hands on technology is invaluable"
