Ballard Camera is a family owned store that has specialized in photo related products and services for over 60 years. Along with photo services and equipment, we take passport photos and foreign country ID photos, (infants and small children, no problem). The recent Scrapbooking craze hit Ballard Camera in 1992 and since then we have become a local leader in paper, stickers and supplies. Whether you are a digital camera shooter or prefer traditional film, you will find knowledgeable, friendly people to assist you with equipment and services such as on line ordering and in store kiosks where you can order prints on the spot. We are a kid friendly environment with lots of toys on hand make shopping easier for moms and dads, (doggie treats too!) We also, recently became an official United States Post Office, to help with your shipping needs. Imagine, a real US Post Office with no lines (and no mark-up). Come see why not only Ballard, but the entire Seattle area have come to depend on Ballard Camera for their photo and imaging needs for 60 years.

The staff was very interesting and fun to talk with; they helped me find just about everything I needed and offered to order the things they didn't have. Great selection of new and old cameras. Very nice online accomodations- quick turn around.
The store was a little cluttered; but I wouldn't consider it messy.

Good location in Ballard. Kind of wierd staff, we went in to get our passport pictures taken and had to bring them back due because they were not taken according to Passport photo standards. It was a big inconvenience because we had to go back and forth. However, we have had 35 mm pictures developed and liked how they turned out. I didn't think parking was too bad, since you can run in and out pretty quickly.
PROS: Great variety of camera equipment!
CONS:

Ballard camera offers just about everything for the amateur or professional photographer. They have 1 hour photo service for prints or slides. Their expert staff is very helpful when it comes to tips and suggestions about photography in general. If they don't have something, they can suggest another place that might have it. They also have lots of scrapbooking supplies for crafters.

CONS: closed on Sundays
