By Betty Davis


Classification of photo booths is such that they are placed either under modern kiosks or vending machines. Typical booth is fitted with a film processor and an automatic camera. What is fascinating is the mode of payment and how it operates. When a coin is inserted into the machine the camera automatically takes a snapshot of the person. The film processor then releases the photograph. As times have changed so have the booths as they are more digitized in line with current technology. Here are facts to learn about Houston photo booths.

This type of vending machines date back to 1888. During this year the first government grant for an automatic photography machines was petitioned by Willian Pope in the city of Baltimore. Later other copyrights in the same category were petitioned by various people. The earlier machines however did not have self-sufficiency and reliability therefore produced ferrotypes. It was during the pre-modern era that all this took place.

The first modern booth for photography, with curtains was created by Anatol Josepho, a Russian immigrant into the US. The first booth by Josepho would appear on Broadway in the City of New York in 1925. One was required to pay 25 cents and the booth from take, develop, and produce printed eight printed photos. This process took an approximated time of ten minutes. The booth received 280, 000 clients within its first six months of erection.

Photomaton company then took the idea from their and started producing photo booths in large numbers. The managers of the firm were impressed by the idea and that is why they started large scale production. Photomaton secured the machines and erected them all over th United States while paying the owner of the idea some money. The idea was considered an innovation with Josepho enlisted as the owner and entitled to royalties.

Most of these kiosks are used for the production of passport photos. The photos printed meet all the requirements of passport photo standards. Mostly, multiple copies are printed. The kiosks are equipped with a bench or a seat of some kind so that the client can seat as they get photographed. The seat can usually accommodate one or two people. For privacy purposes, there is usually a curtain surrounding the seat. One gets the privacy they need while avoiding the interference from outside.

For the photo session to take place one has to first pay then get seated. The client is signaled when to seat after making the payment by either a flash of light or buzzer. State of the art machines take one shot and have multiple printed. These copies maybe 3 or 8 in number.

In the traditional wet-chemistry kiosks, the film developing process starts instantly after the shots are taken and may take quite a few minutes. Modern kiosks the process is quite fast and may take up to 30 seconds. The prints always differ in dimensions and are given to the client after they have been developed.

In the United States, there are both black and white booths and well as color ones. On the other hand, in Europe, black and white kiosks have been replaced by color ones almost entirely. Latest digital booths offer the customer the option of producing either black and white or colored photos.
