Want a professional photo in Tokyo? We recommend 19Studio!

ID photo booths vary a lot in quality. Older models may have weak lighting that leaves your face looking dark, and some can't deliver your photo as a digital file. If you want consistently high-quality ID photos, we recommend having your photo taken in a studio.
19Studio in Shinjuku accepts same-day bookings, so it's a good choice even if you need your photo in a hurry. There's also an optional suit-compositing service, so you can get a business-attire photo without bringing a suit!
