I remember as a kid nearly every mall or even large store had a photo booth--and Me and my parents used them often in the '90s. However, the only place I've seen one in the last five years or so is a bowling alley. It just seems they've declined in popularity.

A couple movie theaters I go to have them and I believe there is at least one in the mall around my home town. I can't say photo booths were ever my thing. I've probably only used them twice in my life, the last time being sometime in middle school. I do notice them a lot in TV shows and movies, especially during video or photo montages trying to show people having a good time together.  :D

Still one in the mall nearest me, and it is still popular!

There is one in our local mall. I guess they're not popular anymore because every second cell phone has a camera now....and they are no longer a novelty!

I remember they started putting a monitor screen on the outside showing what picture was being taken inside.  Cut down on the boob shots.
:(

They have one at our mall. I have some old shots of me & some friends that were taken way back in the dark ages. Every time I come across them, I still laugh.

I haven't seen those photo booths in many years.  I had some pictures taken with a couple of friends at a state fair when I was in high school; I have long since misplaced those photos.  :-\\

I have tons and tons of those pictures, of me and my friends.  Once I took my nephew in one when he was 4 - he is 17 now.  Steve and I went into one at a KMart when we were first dating.  Those are probably my favorite pictures of us.  I love photo booth photos.  I'm usually laughing in at least one of every picture, so I know I was always having a good time!

Yay, I found it - me and hubby in a photo booth when we were first dating:

Any beach with an arcade.

This probably should be a thread in more then a decade.  lol

I remember taking photos in these the majority of my life.  Even when I was a kid, they were rare.  My mom has a set of photo booth photos of her and her cousin taken back in the 60s.  I know I have some from the 70s somewhere.

Here is a book I got all about Photo Booth photos:

Photo booths play a subplot in the French movie "Amelie".  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkGTD8MYlvA&feature=related

There is a photo booth at our local shopping mall/complex.  Not certain how relevant they are these days...with cell phones having cameras. :-\\

Photo booths are still useful for passport photos can taken on them.

I remember getting my photo taken with my little sister at a photo booth at the local mall. I was about eleven or twelve.

I never really pay attention to photo booths anymore, so I don't really know if the local mall still has them.
