NYC’s Premiere Analog Photobooth Gallery + Museum
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 host 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.
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.

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.
