the history of photo booths

Traditionally photo booths contain a seat or bench designed to seat the one or two patrons being photographed. Once the payment is made, the photo booth will take a series of photographs. Before each photograph there would be a signal that the picture was about to be taken. After the last photograph in the series has been taken, the photo booth begins developing the film.

What a change today has made in photo booths.

Check out this old photo booth picture I found of my family, and then take a look at the current photo booth strips that we produce on ShutterYou.

What is great is the quality is better, the pictures are a little wider and the best is there is no stool in our booth so you don’t have to cram 3 people in to take a fun family shot! Now we are cramming 12 people into the booth!

It’s great to run across family mementos that are representative of what you are doing for a living now, It’s amazing how much more attention this photo got now that this is what I do.
