"makes me feel like they
really work for me"
|
"I
have been printing my own portrait work for over 40 years,
and have never been able to really endorse any lab,
no matter how large or how custom. That is until now.
Mid-South has been able to meet my standards in product
quality, customer service, and delivery. There are less
expensive labs, and there are faster labs. But, I've found
no overall better lab that makes me feel like they really
work for me. It's been quite an adjustment, giving up
printing, but, I really think I could get used to
this."

"a staff that will treat
you like family"
|
"Finding
Brooks Clayton and his staff at Mid-South Color has been an
incredible blessing on many different levels. Creating
top quality products for our art savvy clientele takes a team
of dedicated professionals. We consider our lab to be a
critical member of our team and Mid-South is the perfect fit.
Brooks personally worked with us to create unique repeatable
processes and products that communicated the WOW factor we
were trying to achieve. He has developed and trained a
highly skilled and personable staff that will treat you like
family. It is a rarity to find such a skilled quality
conscious business that cares about their clients."

"There is a professional lab that can still deliver"
|
"In today’s photographic industry, words and phrases like quality, superior customer service, and commitment are so misused that they don’t seem to carry the amount of impact that they should. However, there is a professional lab that still can deliver on the above mentioned words and even go beyond them….welcome to Mid-South Color Labs! Brooks Clayton and his superior staff makes you feel more like a friend rather than an account number. It’s nice to know if there is a question about an order a representative will call you for clarification instead of giving it their “best guess”. Print delivery deadlines are met on time, even during the busy seasons. Print and finishing quality also remain superb. My image as a professional is very important to me, Mid-South Color is a key part of maintaining the level of quality that I desire."

"above and beyond my
highest expectations"
|
"I came to Mid-South Color Labs
when my previous lab closed over night.
In a panic, I phoned a well-known photographer in my
area whose work I admired and she recommended Mid-South.
Brooks Clayton calmed me and promised to take care of
my work. Ever
since he has been a mentor and a friend.
What I most appreciate about Mid-South is my being able to
reach anyone with whom I need to speak.
I do not feel like a number and I don’t have to
convey my thoughts to the “sales person at the counter”
who will relay my messages to the powers that be.
The lab goes above and beyond my highest
expectations—timely turn around, professionalism and 100%
reliability. All the employees are a joy to work
with.
Mid-South staff’s extra-ordinary consistency, tight color
control, and management of print integrity have made me a
loyal and devoted client.
I feel the increase in sales I have experienced since
becoming a customer is a direct result of their skill and
dedication to quality, and their high degree of technical
and digital abilities.
I look forward to many more years of working with Mid
South’s ‘can do’ attitude, enthusiasm and love for the
art of photography."

"My custom lab has to be
an extension of me."
|
"For the last
seventeen years I have sent my work to Mid-South Color Labs. Having experienced their ability and quality while at Skipworth in Memphis, I saw absolutely no need to change labs when I opened my studio in Nashville. Like most professionals, I have my list of preferences. The people at Mid-South have come to know me and what I expect. I like their attitude toward being a 'partner.' That means I get their best every time. And when I have a special request,
even computer issues that have nothing to do with the lab, Mid-South is there extending their best to me. I like that in a custom lab."

"A portrait photographer is only as good as his lab."
|
"I'm fortunate in that a large portion of my business involves canvas-mounted wall portraits. My customers are discriminating. They expect a creative, well-produced portrait. The creativity is my part, the rest is up to the lab. I switched to Mid-South Color Labs over
ten years ago because they deliver well-printed, exquisitely mounted prints...time after time. When the inevitable problem does arise, they are very accommodating and quick to adjust. The real test of a lab comes at Christmas. Mid-South made my Christmas season the easiest it has been in years. As a portrait photographer, you're only as good as your lab. Mid-South does their part in making me look good all year long."

"My goal is to create the finest heirloom portraits"
|
"The success of a Carriage Trade Studio relies upon many key ingredients. A capable color lab is a necessity. Mid-South Color Labs has an excellent customer service department. They work with me to help ensure that I meet important deadlines. A large percentage of my business is comprised of wall size canvas portraits. Mid-South Color Labs prints these larger pieces beautifully! Mid-South Color Labs is dedicated to providing a quality product in a timely manner. This is critically important to my studio. My clients expect their portraits to be of the highest quality. Mid-South Color Labs' assistance enables me to provide a beautiful custom product."

"I Wish I had done this
years earlier"
|
"I had worked with my previous lab
for 25 years. Over the years, with acquisitions and mergers
the lab I worked with became a behemoth.. We became only an
account number.. the icing on the cake was the closing of
the local lab. I was ripe for change just when I
received a phone call from a trusted and admired friend
suggesting I try Mid-South Color.. I am very hesitant of
change.
My Gosh, I cannot tell you how pleased I
am. I wish I had done this years earlier. It took only
a short time to work out my preferences and what a
difference, the color of the prints are consistently
exceptional, no re-do's. Better than the work, however, is
the incredible staff.. Brooks is an outstanding human
being. There is not enough that can be said
about his wonderful personality. I don't think there
is anything he would not do for you.. If you need it
tomorrow, it will be there. So there you have it.. excellent
product, incredible service, wonderful people... Thank you
very much Mid-South! I look forward to a long working
relationship with you."

" I have found my team--Mid-South Color Labs"
|
"The day I started working with Mid-South Color Labs was the day my life in the studio improved. Changing labs has never been easy but the switch to Mid-South could not have been easier. From day one, their service has been incredible! Whenever I call with a special request or a problem that I have created, customer service has always said 'We can take care of that, do not worry about it.' On top of this great service is their fantastic print quality and turn around time. It is so nice to find a lab that is concerned about my satisfaction. As a high-end studio, I need a team behind me working and delivering the finest portraits that can be produced. I have found my team--Mid-South Color Labs. Thank you Mid-South for being there and making my portraits look their very best."
