Prints Charm’n

These guys are super friendly, fast and good at what they do! Comparable to everything that Argentum offers, but faster and with a better attitude :)

Been coming here for the past several months and the service and hospitality is INCREDIBLE. They truly care about the customer. Today I went in to print an order and because they couldn’t service me, they found me a place in LA that could meet what I needed. Needless to say Prints Charm’n is my go to place for headshots. They are quick, polite and very attentive to your every need. Very nice people and have found a loyal customer in me.

Prints Charm’n is the GO TO place for getting headshots and resumes printed. Both times I’ve used them they have been extremely quick as getting back to me, and have had my prints needed on the same day. They will even email a proof of the final copy before printing anything. Last but certainly not least they are the kindest staff! While they’ve been in business for years they are not pretentious.
And I should note that when I was trying to staple my headshot and resume together they showed me a trick, so I wouldn’t have to staple them and they looked perfect. You’ll just have to go find out for yourself what that trick is :)

This is place is great! Affordable, quick, and easy. Absolutely had a woderful experience. The owner’s are great. I’ll make sure to head back for all of my printing needs in the future.

Truly terrible service here. If I could co-​sign Debbie P’s comments I would. I continue to come back because of While U Wait printing but it’s always a chaotic mess to get the pictures in my hands. I’ll be ordering in bulk elsewhere and am gladly taking recommendations.

This place is great! Got exactly what I wanted for head shots! I would def refer my friends to go here.

Super nice staff!
Just a head’s up– there are two little yorkies that guard the entrance to the store. They keep their distance and even got friendly with me after a while! However, they are very loud and even sound unwelcoming so if you’re not prepared for it when you first walk in, you may be turned off.
Ultimately, the staff was very patient with me and took lots of time to make sure I was happy with my headshots. I ended up not purchasing any the day I went in there because I was unhappy with the shot I selected (my fault, not theirs!) but even so, the owner was so nice and helped educate me on what might be a better choice. Even though I didn’t buy anything, he gave me the two samples he printed for free.
I will be back to print when I’m ready!

Great service, very professional. Had a great time at the shop. Everyone was very nice and professional. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who needs head shots printed. Not your average hollywood feel. Very down to earth and comfortable. I will be getting all of my prints done here from now on.

I needed my headshots printed the same day for an unexpected audition, I looked around and found Prints Charm’nm. They have been in business for 30 years! I sent them an email and immediately had a proof for me. I loved it. After I paid over the phone I went down to pick them up. Scott was very cool and helped me out with my resume too! Great customer service and now I’m a life long customer. Argentum who? LOL! I also liked their pups who hung out with me while they printed my pics. Thank you SCOTT!!! YOU ROCK!!!

Super nice and friendly people, great looking shots, great price… you can’t really ask for more!

Very good service through and through from Jeff today. This place is charming in of itself and the two dogs roaming around warmed my heart. I just loved everything about my visit here despite the fact that I did not end up getting my photos printed here due to a size restriction. Thanks, Jeff!

Ran into this place in a rush before an audition… easy to get metered parking
(be careful with the Culver City meter-​maids though!!!)
I walked in & felt like I was in someone’s headshot den/​cottage. Every employee welcomes you and makes you feel comfortable and at home.
The best part about this place? The amazing individual attention. Jeff will really take his time to make your headshot appear up to your standards… its amazing. They give you accurate wait times and printing times.
If you have a small order, you won’t be waiting for more than 15 minutes… even if you do end up waiting longer than usual, you will enjoy your time here.

Lets be honest, I was very attracted to the name of this place. Very smart, Prints Charm’ng, very smart. But a name doesn’t make a business and I wish I just stuck with Pixels for my headshots printing needs, but you know what, learn and let live.
The truth is, I LOVE pixels (on melrose), not once have they failed me. What, then, was the reason I tried a new place? I needed Zed cards printed this round instead of headshots and pixels takes 5 – 7 business days (because they outsource their Zed cards, everything else in printed in store) whereas Prints Charm’ng prints Zed Cards in house and they said I was pick it up in two days. I was sold.
However, now that I think about it, considering they print in house, 2 days is very slow. Pixel does same day collection for anything printed in house.
Anyways, the first thing that pissed me off about this place is, they literally have no sense of style. The drafts they sent me back were so tacky and just did not look professional. We ended up having to go back and fourth four times till I finally just gave him a sample and told him to follow it exactly.
The second thing that annoyed me is how slow they are. Every time we went back and fourth, I’d have to call to see if they got my email and to hurry them. Then, this morning, I went in to look at the proofs (at 1230pm no less, I was promised it would be ready at 9am) and ended up having to wait 20mins because they weren’t printed. The finals WERE ready by the end of the day as promised though so I give them that at least.
The place smells like dog pee because there are two yorkies that hang out there and the people are nice but a little too chatty and full of bad jokes. I get it, I like friendly people too. But maybe they should focus on getting their business together before they try to chat and be friendly.
The Zed cards turned out pretty good, and I got them today as promised (thus the three stars) but will I use them again? Probably not. I mean, if I was prepared to draw out what I wanted exactly (to the last detail) and needed it in a rush, then maybe.
But if I wasn’t in a rush, I’d definitely go back to pixels. There is just too much competition in LA and no need to go to an average business.

I needed my head shots done quickly. I did some research on local spots, did some calling around, which one place in particular wouldn’t answer their phone or emails, and when prints charmn came recommended by a friend i checked them out online. Their prices were better than any other I could find, but most of all, they were so kind, helpful, and were funny. I felt like i was part of the gang when I came in to check out my proofs and even stuck around ten more minutes to wait for the rest of my shots to be printed (i was getting 25 shots at the time). They do hour printing while you wait at the sawtelle location.
I am really happy with my head shots and how quickly Scott was able to do the set up and have the proof ready for me. Overall, this place was an absolute treat to deal with. Don’t mind the pun, i gave treats to the guard dogs to win their little tiny hearts over, cute little yorkies.
Call this place, they will set you up for success!

This place is so hidden but such a wonderful place! Whether you need a single print (like me) or a stack of headshots, Print Charmn is on top of it! Very quick, friendly and helpful also very well priced! Will absolutely be back for any printing needs :)

This place is great! If you need a couple of headshots in a jiffy Prints Charm’n is the Bizness!!!
THe couple that runs it are sooo sweet with really cute little terrier dogs to greet you.
The headshot prints are of nice quality. If they arent busy you’re in and out headshots in hand within 15 mins. or less. They even make sure you feed your meter!!!
With casting being done online these days, this is my one and only stop now for a handful of headshots.

Nobody like saying bad things about NICE PEOPLE. And these are nice people — But this is a business and it’s a business that is poorly run, disorganized, with excruciatingly slow customer service. I was told by TWO friends — they would never return because of the SLOW service. (I did share this info with the owners and was still there FOR HOURS)
The first time I was there — 90 minutes. The second time — 2 ½ hours (the owner felt badly and gave me money for meter!). The third time I was there I stopped counting the minutes at 3 ¼ hours (AND while I was being helped the owner asked if the man working with me could cut another order). There is poor communication among the folks working there Screen capture images I paid for were no where on their system and on the computer of the gal who did the capture and she doesn’t work there. I was told they would not give me the images that were captured (that I paid to capture) there because AND I QUOTE — «we want you to make all your copies here!»
If you go to PrintsCharmn, bring a roll of quarters for the meter, bring a snack and be prepared to waste your entire afternoon while you camp out in a dog urine smelling small area and watch the chaos.

I love these guys – they’re always so helpful and sweet, and the quality is just outstanding. I’ve never even needed to get proofs because they simply just always look so good, and I can trust that to be consistent.
I love that it’s a family business, and am so happy to support that.
By the way, I had to get some prints done and was very pinched with time, but they were having internet trouble, so they helped me out by sending me to Carlos in their Studio City location. He helped me set everything up and sent the stuff over on the drive that they have go down to the West LA store at the end of each business day, which is their main shop (that’s why there’s no while-​you-​wait service in Studio City).
Everyone at Prints Charm’n is so great, the quality is so fantastic, and the price is so right – why would I go anywhere else?

Prints Charm’n is such a great business; our experience there was amazing my Agency will continue to use them as well as recommend them!
The owner stated that he was thinking of offering us character photos (same day) and I believe this was a great idea. If we are in need of a character photo for a doctor they will have a green screen with props take the photo print it and there you have it!
Great right?
If you think this is a great idea let them know!
Have a great day,
Dr. Jeanelle

Fantastic experience! Couldn’t be happier with my headshots. They are super helpful while you sit down with them to prepare your set-​up (FREE, I must say) and borders. They also provide test proofs prior to printing. The price is super affordable for such great quality prints! I was out of there in no more than 20 minutes for 20 headshots at $ 30!
They can also print your resume on 8×10 paper for only $.15 a copy! Highly recommended. I now have a go-​to place for awesome headshot prints!

Prints Charm’n is the fastest, cheapest, most amusing print shop in all of Los Angeles!
Not only do they work closely with you so you walk away with exactly what you ask for (and then some — they are down to get creative), but they do it all WHILE YOU WAIT, at practically NO COST, and with a heavy dose of hilarious banter to go along with it — a winning combination that puts a smile on your face as you walk out that door, freshly-​printed headshots in hand.
Needless to say, I will be back for more… and you should too!

I don’t throw around 5 stars like it’s nothing– this place is AMAZING! If I could give it 12 stars– I would!
As an aspiring actress you need the best looking headshots money can buy– and that’s not just it– you need them to look just as good, if not better on printed paper as they do on your computer and camera.
After printing my headshots at Fedex Kinkos on 7^th street– then getting an immediate refund (the photos came out AWFUL– over saturated yellows and reds… completely unusable… the manager then blamed me and scolded me for printing multiples without first printing a proof. Uh… Hello– isn’t it your job to make sure your printer is working correctly?) Sorry for the tangent– anyway– after that bad experience at Kinko’s I went to another printing place– The Printers on Santa Monica Blvd near the Bundy intersection. Wowza– what an awful experience– that one is worth negative stars if it were at all possible.
Down on my luck, I went home– freaking out because I had an agency meeting the next day and not one single headshot to give them. That’s when I started google-​ing. I came across Prints Charm’n and called the number. I spoke with a guy named Fabian and asked how soon I could have my headshots printed… he said he could try to have them done for me the same day, but he didn’t know if it would be possible– he recommended that I pick them up the morning of my agency meeting at 8:30am– AN HOUR BEFORE THEY EVEN OPEN– just to make sure everything looked perfect for my amazing opportunity with the agency.
He then had me email over my headshot… just the image. I’m not going to lie– I was totally freaking out thinking what if this guy forgets– what if they’re awful– what if he doesn’t show up in the morning– BAAAHHH my opportunity would be squandered and it would be the end of my world (Okay– I’m a little dramatic– but seriously– I was thinking that– lol).
Within an hour he emailed me over 2 proofs with different color backgrounds and my name on the bottom– then he called me to ensure I got them; he also recommended that I get the black border because it made my photo «pop».
Oh my gosh… was this actually a professional? Uh… I thought I had a winner– but*** nothing could be certain until I picked up my headshots. 8:30am the following day– I’m en route to pick up my photos– I get there, and THANK GOD!!! Fabian was there!!!
Okay– I’m panting now– how will my headshots turn out? Fabian handed me the large bag of headshots and they were PERRRRRRRRFFFFFFFEEEEECCCCTTTTTT!!! I don’t know what this miracle worker did, but I looked better on the paper than I did on my actual photo! The colors were perfect, the card stock was perfect– and for 100 photos it was only $ 59!!! He even waived the rush fee!
This guy was a total life saver. They now have a customer for life– and that my Unilocal friends is something to Unilocal!about!
