Fussy about the small details since 2010
Persnickety Prints started with a mom who couldn't find prints good enough for her family's scrapbooks. Sixteen years later, the same darkroom in Orem, Utah is printing memories for families across the country, one carefully checked print at a time.
A mom, a camera and a better way to print
In 2006, Chari Pack was a mom of three little boys making digital scrapbook pages. Every print she ordered was either poor quality, too expensive, or both. So in 2010, she opened a lab of her own.
Persnickety grew more than 500% in its first three years and was named one of Utah Valley's Fastest Growing Companies two years in a row.

Persnickety Prints 2.0
In August 2026, founder Chari Pack came home to Persnickety Prints. Same darkroom, same obsession with the small details, and a fresh list of ideas for what comes next.
The mission hasn't changed: helping people connect with themselves, their families and their communities through print.
Your pictures matter
Persnickety Prints began with one mom's love for her family. Every order still gets that same care.
We're not printing photos for today, but for the next generation.
