Owners are rude. Their work is just okay.

Ibrahim Abe

Nice place

Sam Raridon

A dedicated photo shop without a darkroom? I wouldnt consider that a photo shop.

Carole Gieseke

These folks do a great job. I have used them for scanning old photos, doing oversized prints, making specialty items with my images, and printing lots and lots of photographs. The two times I had an issue with my order, they re-did it, no charge, and no questions asked. That's great service.

I have been getting my Christmas cards here for several years and they are always great. Lisa does a super job, and very professional! We are so fortunate to have this store in Ames, but they will ship anywhere! Lots more than just cards too, they can do so much with your photos.

Sara Dubsky

I've had a 2 layer metal photo and a large canvas photo done and the quality is always the best. I 100% recommend everyone to this place for photo printing!

Jill Daiker

Always fabulous service!

Fantastic prints that fade minimally. We get all of our state fair photos printed here. Amazing prices on 4x6 prints as well.

Tim Coble

Service as you would expect from a local shop, personal and friendly. Another good excuse to visit Main Street (if you really need one).

The staff is always friendly and helpful. Their in-store products are well-made and creative. The custom works they have done for me has been exceptional. I highly recommend them.

Yesterday was my first anniversary. Lisa at PhotoSynthesis helped me put this together: three panoramic photos from our wonderful travels together (Bryce Canyon, Isle Royale, Thunder Bay) printed on brushed metal. It's INCREDIBLE! The metal really illuminates the photos in a way I wasn't expecting. My hubby was gobsmacked. Lisa was the nicest, most patient, creative person to work with. You don't have to be in Ames—she can work with you online and mail it. Seriously: coolest gift ever. You want one.

This is a locally owned business that brings quality printing and creative ways to print! My favorite mug was printed there!

Alicia VanCannon

Ordered odd sized photos from my wedding and the quality is amazing. I couldn't find another company with my sizes. Would definitely recommend!

Sharon Tamashunas

I have had many photos printed, a couple projects, as well as passport photos done here. Customer service and product is A++++.

Came into today for a passport photo and I was very happy. The photographer from Malaysia was really great. Awesome job guys! Great customer service!!!

Todd Hageman

Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. great place for your photographic/graphic arts needs. They do scanning and printing as well. Good location right on Main Street.

Jim Coppoc

Great ideas for small gifts every time I go in. My son and I also got our passport photos there. Service is always amazing, and the fact that this business contributes to the Main Street community is well worth supporting.

Tammy Sharp

I have used you several times for printing out my kids senior pictures. I have had nothing but amazing customer service and kindness. When printing out the invitation to the grad party, I had spelled Graduation, Gratuation. You had started printing them when it was noticed. I was contacted, and the spelling was corrected and I was not charged for those that had already been printed. And IT WAS MY FAULT, you didn't have to do that, but I appreciated it and will continue to use you.

Mindy Benson

Photosynthesis is one of my favorite stores in downtown Ames! The owner Lisa took a simple snap shot of our new baby neice, and made it into a beautiful printed memory that will be cherished forever! The work and customer service at Photosynthesis is top notch! I highly recommend!

Bonnie Storey

I don't print many pictures but Photosynthesis came highly recommended. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Jason Mrachina

Very high quality local printer. I used them to print a very large (30" x 60") panoramic canvas wrap for a client. The results were amazing. There are lots of interesting gifts for ISU fans and grads in their store. I used paypal / website to place the order and followed up with a phone call and email. Their pricing was competitive with online retailers, and I appreciated the convenience of working with a local business. I will definitely use them again.
