A photo studio that takes same-day bookings

Photo booths vary a lot in quality. Older machines may have weak lighting that leaves your face looking dark, and some can't give you the photo as digital data. If you want consistently high-quality ID photos, we recommend having them taken at a photo studio.
19Studio in Shinjuku takes same-day bookings. You can also add a suit composite (a digitally added suit) as an option, which makes it a great fit if you're short on time!
