NEW YORK GALLERY + MUSEUM
NYC’s Premiere Analog Photobooth Gallery + Museum
121 ORCHARD ST
NEW YORK, NYC
TUE-SUN • 12PM-10PM
An analog museum, gallery, and photo studio for lovers of light, chemistry, and black and white nostalgia.
AUTOPHOTO is a one-of-a-kind space dedicated to the art, history, and ongoing life of vintage photobooths.
It’s part archive, part gallery, part portrait-making palace—featuring a rotating collection of restored machines and exhibitions from artists who work within four frames.
We also proudly share space with the Sure Thing Chapel, where couples can book a quick, Vegas-style ceremony and step into a vintage booth to capture their first kiss—printed the old-fashioned way (opening later this year).
In collaboration with photobooth technicians and enthusiasts around the world, we created this space to celebrate the history, beauty, and magic of photobooths. For the curious, the sentimental, and the analog-obsessed—you’re in the right place.

THE SURE THING CHAPEL
Opening in 2026 — The Sure Thing Chapel, under the same roof as AUTOPHOTO, brings the spirit of a Las Vegas wedding to New York. Elopements & micro-weddings are welcome. Celebrate, say “I do,” and capture it forever in our analog photobooths.
Weddings require a reservation with Sure Thing Chapel. Opening Spring 2026. Follow @surethingchapel for updates.
IN COLLABORATION
In a small but passionate community dedicated to preserving photobooths, collaboration is essential to keeping the art alive. Our gallery features machines restored by skilled technicians and enthusiasts from around the world, along with rare artifacts from private collections and never-before-seen blueprints. None of it would be possible without the support of this community.
