A few days ago, we had an epiphany… although many of you send us your work all season long, you probably don’t know a whole lot about what the lab looks like or how we actually operate during our busiest months. The holiday season, or “rush” as we like to call it, begins the day after Thanksgiving and runs all the way through December 23rd (the last possible moment you can place an order in time for Christmas).
While many of our emails boast about our stellar turnaround time and impeccable quality, we often fail to mention one of the most important parts of our formula: our people. During rush, we are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to accommodate the increased volume for the holidays. All of the different departments come together to lend a hand with even the smallest tasks. While many could see the long hours and hard work as a burden, it’s these moments that make it truly special to work in a photo lab. Regardless of position, we come together and work side-by-side to make sure that we honor our promise to you.
We are on the homestretch and have a few long nights ahead of us, but we can’t help but smile. We feel so fortunate for the amazing people that work within the walls of our lab and for all of the talented photographers like yourself.
Cheers,
Team Miller’s
Check out a few quick photos we took around the Columbia lab:
You guys are the very BEST. My business counts on your quality, turn around and customer service. You have NEVER let me down in the last eight years. Thank you Millers!!!!!!!!!!
That was AWESOME! I’ve always wondered what the lab looked like and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised to see an order I had placed being shipped on SATURDAY! Didn’t know you guys were 24/7 during the rush. Excellent job.
Happy Holidays to you all!
Very Cool! Happy Holidays to all!
You guys ROCK!!! Have a Merry Christmas and thank you for all you do to make me look so good!

Thanks to all at Millers for working so hard to get everybody’s orders out in time for Christmas!
Thank you for posting those pix. I have always wanted to see the inner workings of the best lab on the planet! Funny, I expected it to be bigger than an airplane hangar and as dark as Carlsbad Caverns.
Anyway, you guys make up the fastest, most accurate, best trained and most courteous lab in the world and I’m glad I found you 14 years ago. Keep up the good work!!!
Fun to look behind the big doors at my Columbia, MO Millers Imaging.
I am always impressed with the work Millers completes for me. Now I can see the team effort involved. Thanks for the hustle !!! Looking forward to another great year with Millers.
WOW!!! I push your product and company to everyone that I can. Having dealt with you for a number of years now, I know that the product and custom service is tops. Happy Holidays!
Each of you is to be commended. I thank you for what you do every day. You make us look great every day.
Thanks so much for sharing. Always wondered what the digs looked like!
Nice to meet all of you, but you didn’t need to post this to tell me about your people…all of my contacts with your crew have been nothing but helpful, friendly, and efficient and that told me everything I needed to know about your operation.
Thank you! It’s so nice to see the faces behind the phone and packages from you. As a reformed lab employee, I remember the rush. Thank each and every one of you for all you do for me through the years. You folks are the best organization I have ever had the pleasure of working with. James
Thanks for the exceptional service and quality. You work hard and it is appreciated! Merry Christmas to all of you!
How did you know that I was thinking about your lab and wondering if it was “ordered chaos” during this time of year. I really appreciate these photos especially because I have worked in a lab, I come from a Photo finishing family business, and I studied photography at Stephens College, Columbia, MO and at Ohio University in Athens, Ohio.
Thanks for all your great work!
Merry Christmas
Cindy
