Costco - cheap, reliable fast.

The Costco in Puyallup is what I use for fast things and for sports pitures used for scrap booking. I've been working with their techs there ever since they started doing digital. It all depends on the tech working when you want something a little outside the normal online ordering format. Get to know them and then you can comfortably order from them and also make sure to use the profiles for the store printer when you send in files.

For wedding, portrait and finer art prints I use Millers Lab (Miller's Professional Imaging) , the parent company for MPIX which also provides really nice prints through their MPIXpro site.
