  1. What kind of magic foto booth makes such photos?. Really crisp and flattering tones.
    Great sweater too.

  2. I hate to bring this up, but....I'm not sure these are photo booth shots. They're pretty well done, and I think they might be small proof prints, made by a studio photographer. They were once quite common in the studio business. The photographer would have a pre set camera and background. After the shoot, reduction prints would be made for the client, as samples. They were made small because they couldn't be used for much of anything other than picking and choosing what images were to be blown up and framed. This particular shot looks pretty formal for a photo booth.

    1. I've been wondering about that. The clarity and poses do look professional, I just wasn't sure. I didn't think they were contact prints because of their size.

    2. Oh now you've gone and spoiled the illusion, WJY. Your explanation makes perfect sense, but the fantasy story (ala Ray Bradbury) of a magic photo booth was just way more fun than reality.
