The Challenge
Scott's Rochester Photo Supply supports camera repair, restoration, and film processing, work that shifts between precise seated tasks and standing jobs. Fixed-height desks locked every task at one height; worst still, with no designated workstations, parts and tools were scattered across the lab. Technicians, consequently, lost time searching for supplies and stepping away to reach equipment.
The Solution
UPLIFT Desk outfitted five dedicated workstations built for repair, restoration, and lab work. Height-adjustable desks let each technician set the surface to fit the task at hand, while Engage Stools, monitor arms, and organizer sets keep every tool and part within reach. Less searching means more time on the next job.
A new chapter for a Rochester staple
For more than 50 years, Scott's has been a hub for Rochester's photography community, offering film processing, printing, restoration, and camera sales under one roof. When Tatiana Ariola purchased the business in 2025, she inherited a proud legacy along with a lab that hadn't seen many updates in recent years.
Tatiana had trusted UPLIFT Desk for years before taking over Rochester Photo Supply. When it was time to overhaul the lab, her mandate was clear: build a dedicated, fully equipped workstation for every role.
"I can't thank UPLIFT Desk enough for making our lab space not only functional, but beautiful."
