Foto Box’s freestanding 12-person photo booth distills memories, instantly transforming them into high-resolution color prints. A smiling attendant sets up the sharp-shooting booth, laying out boxes of whimsical props, such as jumbo sunglasses, hats, and photo-booth costumes. Equipped with Nikon DSLR cameras and professional lighting gear, the automated photographer captures wild smiles and mischievous grins in four quick flashes. A string of dye-sublimated pictures print onto high-quality archival photo paper for immediate gratification. After the four-hour session, the attendant tears down the booth and immortalizes every image online, where 24–48 hours later, guests can access digital copies to post on blogs or milk cartons.

Foto Box’s freestanding photo booth transforms images into high-resolution color prints in 12 seconds. An attendant sets up the sharp-shooting booth and lays out boxes of props, such as jumbo sunglasses and hats. Equipped with Nikon and Canon DSLR cameras and professional lighting gear, the automated photographer captures wild smiles, mischievous grins, and stares of existential angst in four quick flashes. The LCD monitor's live feed helps up to 12 subjects perfect their funny faces.
Customized message strips add a cartoonish twist to the souvenirs by narrating the action of birthday bashes, weddings, or corporate parties. Images later appear online, where guests can access digital copies to post on blogs or milk cartons.
