"Jim Megargee & Cornelia vanderLinde run one of the finest black-and-white photo labs in the world. Their New York City company MV Photo Labs Inc. works for such famous photographers as; Gordon Parks, Matthew Barney, Peter Beard, James Nachtwey, Mark Seliger, Nigel Parry and many other talented photographers and friends.
The secret behind their success lies not only in technical perfectionism and photographic inspiration but also in the close relationship which they build between themselves and their clients."

From AGFA Trends Magazine

"I think printers have to have talent and knowledge but, equally important, they must have the will to go all the way and make the best print possible. After all these years Jim Megargee still has that willingness. So, in a way, I thought the prints he produced for my show were the work of both of us."

James Nachtwey, Photo District News

"The prints Jim makes from my negatives are just exquisite".
Steven Sebring, Photo District News

"They have been able to show me ways to tone down my negatives and have given me pointers on how I should be rating my film to get what I want from the print."

Antonin Kratochvil, Photo District News

"You can sit down with Jim and work out how to achieve what needs to be done. He is not only an excellent printer but also someone that has a lot of passion for what he does."
