Getting a photo in Tokyo? We recommend 19Studio!

Photo booth quality varies a lot by model. Older machines may have weak lighting that leaves your face looking dark, or may not let you receive your photo as a digital file. If you want consistently high-quality ID photos, we recommend having them taken at a studio.
19Studio in Shinjuku accepts same-day bookings, so it's a good choice if you need a photo in a hurry. There's also an optional suit retouching service, so you can get your photo taken even without bringing a suit!

Summary

We've covered the area in front of Hiroshima Station, the city's transport hub, and the area around Kamiyacho, where the prefectural government and major shopping facilities are located.

You can get your photo taken before heading out or while doing your everyday shopping, which is very convenient.

Because I used to be the one in front of the camera, I know how nervous people feel. In my articles I share how much a photo can change with a little difference in lighting or the angle of your face.
