Photobooth Album

In the college town where I met my husband there was an old black and white photobooth at the local Kmart. We would always get lots of photos taken and now it is sort of a family tradition. One of our favorite family activities is to go get $20 and spend an hour taking photobooth photos. Sometimes we'll even bring a few props. It is really fun to do and when we are done I put them all in a photo album. This Kolo one is the perfect size. Skip the new digital booths and find the old kind. Photobooth.net has a locator for old-style photobooths.

  1. We like doing this too...but I need to be more prepared next time and grab a $20 on the way...

    Our favorite location in SLC is at the Museum of Natural History at the U of U. In their little dinosaur area they have an old booth. This is a good reminder that we need to do that again soon! Thanks Jordan~

  3. the sept. smithsonian magazine has an article about photobooths you might be interested in:
    http://www.smithsonianmag.com/arts-culture/photobooths.html. the author of the article just published an illustrated book on the history of photobooths as well that looks like fun: http://www.amazon.com/American-Photobooth-Nakki-Goranin/dp/0393330761/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1221543833&sr=8-1
