Founded by an avid film photographer with years of experience in processing, Lorenzo was himself and his friends go-to when someone needed a develop and scan. As film photography begun to flourish once again, friends turned into friend's of friends, Lorenzo enlisted his partner Caitlin to assist him and before he knew it, The Black and White Box was born. TB&WB is an Auckland based, New Zealand wide film development company made for photographers, by photographers. Specialising in B&W as well as C-41, we use top of range processors and scanners at their optimum to ensure the highest quality results are achieved every time. In a world where you can take hundreds of photos in a matter of seconds, film photography is an extremely exciting and rewarding way to capture simple moments in everyday life, right up to creating beautiful work for publication and exhibition. As the industry slowly ceased to evolve due to lack of interest many years ago, the price to shoot film has increased whilst the knowledge and technical understanding involved in the industry has slowly decreased. For this reason we aim to retain this precious knowledge by helping to educate others and most importantly, keep our prices reasonable so that it can still be affordable to shoot on a format we all love.
