How To Use A Photo Booth 101

We get a lot of questions here at the Photo Booth Museum on how exactly to use our photo booths. Take a peek at our easy “how to” guide or watch the video below with Liam #1. He’ll give you all the deets.

How to use the booth:

Step 1: Step Inside

Pick a booth & get comfy. Go solo or bring a friend, your mom, your dog?

Step 2: PAY

Use card or mobile pay to start!

Step 3: Pose fast!

The booth snaps 3-4 quick shots—no retakes

Step 4: Wait for it

Your strip prints in 3-5 minutes which means you have time to text back that friend you thought you hit send on, google whether tomatoes are a fruit or vegetable, and/or wonder if you blinked in every shot you just took.

Step 5: keep and share

Let the strip drop naturally. Once you have your one-of-a-kind memory it's time to share the proof that you were here. Send it to the groupchat + share on your little part of the internet (tag us! @photomatica

You can make it into a keychain at the museum, frame it, use it as a bookmark, the possibilities are endless!
