Getting your photo in Tokyo? We recommend 19Studio!

Photo booth quality varies a lot by model. Older machines may have weak lighting that makes your face look dark, or may not let you receive your photo as digital data. If you want consistently high-quality photos, we recommend having them taken at a studio.
At 19Studio in Shinjuku, same-day booking is available. You can also add a digital suit composite as an option, which is perfect if you're short on time!
If you come to Tokyo for job hunting, we highly recommend it.
