That’s right, you’ve guessed it. There’s another self-photobooth that has just opened in Singapore and they’ve come all the way from Korea — the land where the concept of self-photobooths first started. Does the name Pickypic sound familiar? 

If you’ve been to Korea, or you’re a hardcore fan of K-POP groups like BLACKPINK, BTS, and Newjeans, you might have seen Pickypic’s photobooths before. They’ve got over 200 outlets in Korea, and they’ve even collaborated with popular brands and K-POP groups for fan events.

Good news is, they’ve finally opened their first outlet in Singapore along Haji Lane, joining the likes of other self-photobooth studios. However, what sets them apart from the crowd is their use of the top-notch Korean filter to enhance your features — and boy did they really nail that filter (I have never looked more flawless than this). 

Pickpic has a total of five different rooms to choose from — Leaf Green, Peach Pink, Seoul Blue, Pure White, and Shine Yellow. You’ll get to choose from three different frame designs, as well as eight different coloured backgrounds. Each room also comes with its own specialised shots like bust shot (close-up shots), full body shot, and waist shot (half-body shots). 

My personal favourite was the Seoul Blue room (no surprises that blue is also my favourite colour), where you’ll get to take more half-body and waist shots. In the Pure White room, you’ll get to take full body shots and it comes with a handy wired shutter release for you to control when to take your shots. 

In the other rooms, you’ll only have eight seconds to plan your poses — so make sure to come prepared with poses in mind because the time goes by really quickly. You’ll also get to take a total of eight shots each time and you can pick the best shots to be printed. 

In true photobooth fashion, of course you’ve got to have some quirky props to go along with your poses, otherwise where’s the fun in that? Pickypic has a super extensive selection of cute (and wacky) headgear, headbands, and glasses for you to choose from. 

You can also choose to print your photos out in colour or go old-school and have the image printed out in black and white — both were equally cute. But of course, if you wanna really show off your smile and facial features, then you should definitely choose colour.  

With Christmas drawing close, Pickypic has transformed their Shine Yellow room into a festive Christmas photo spot, complete with three super Christmas-themed frames. It’s hard to pick my favourite Christmas frame because they were all so pretty! The room also has special props for you to pose with. 

Price-wise, each 4R print (four or six frames per print) is S$10 and two photostrips (three or four frames per print) also costs S$10. You can also have additional photo strips printed for S$10 each.

Once you’re done with taking all your pictures, make sure to stop by the black-and-white camera box and have your faces printed out on a Pickypic flyer for free. 

Are you ready to strike your best poses for the camera?

The post Popular self-photobooth studio from Korea, Pickypic, has opened its first store along Haji Lane with five different rooms and photo types, over seven different frame styles & more appeared first on Confirm Good.

The wildly popular Solace Studios is adding not one but two new concepts into the mix. The first is a low angle photobooth — yes, I know, it’s not the most flattering angle. The second one is a fisheye photobooth — quirky or whatever.  

You’ll be able to find these two brand new concepts along with the regular photobooths at Solace Studio’s newest outlet along Haji Lane. The new two-storey shop space is pretty much a self-photo studio paradise for those who love taking photo strips of themselves. 

There’s loads of super cute props here for you to choose from. Plus, they also have hairstyling tools for you to use to get your hair looking picture perfect. 

Yes, we get it, low-angle pics are the most unflattering types of photos one can ever take. So why did Solace Studios launch a low-angle photobooth? Well, it’s actually a pretty interesting way to take some pretty quirky pictures. 

The process of taking the photos at the low-angle photobooth is pretty simple. Once you enter, you’ll be able to choose between single frame, multi-frame or ID photo. Then, instead of posing in front of the camera, you’ll have to step onto the platform and pose above the camera — hence low-angle. 

If you thought the normal photobooth experience was chaotic, the low-angle photobooth takes it up a notch  — but that’s what makes the whole thing fun. However, the pictures we take  did turn out a little dark, but I’m not complaining as it does make one’s double chin look less obvious.

Remember there was a period in time where everyone was obsessed with the fisheye lens? Well, Solace Studios is about to make the fisheye lens photos trendy again. Their new store has a special elevator-themed photobooth for those who love taking lift selfies. 

The elevator-themed photobooth was probably the most fun photobooth experience, in my opinion. But , those who have been stuck in an elevator might not exactly like this. The attention to detail in this booth was on point, it actually looked and felt like we were  in a lift. 

The fisheye lens photos were really a major throwback to the 2010’s. But we reckon it’d be more fun when there’s more people in the photo, so make sure to drag all your friends down and get “stuck in the lift together”! While you’re stuck, why not make a full photoshoot out of it? Solace Studios is also pet-friendly, so you can bring your furkids along too!

Price-wise, both the fisheye and low-angle, you can go for two strips of two or four  frames for S$12 or a multi-frame strip where you can choose between one, two, four, or six frames for the same price. 

Don’t worry, you’ll be allowed retakes for the photos you don’t like and you will also be given free digital copies of your photos to post all over Instagram and TikTok. 

Currently, Solace Studios is celebrating the grand opening of their brand new Haji Lane outlet by offering a free keyring for your photostrips so you can hang your best photos on your bag and parade them around town! You definitely don’t want to miss out on that.

The post Popular self-photobooth studio Solace Studios has opened a two storey store along Haji Lane with low-angle, fisheye lens, and elevator-themed photobooths appeared first on Confirm Good.

At this rate, Haji Lane should be renamed to Selfie Lane with the number of self-photo studios gathered on the street. We’ve got the trendy top-down 0.5 wide angle studios by PIC UP! and One Click Studio; a vintage photobooth, and now, a self-photo studio with six different themes for you to choose from!

Sessions at Pixie Loft are very affordable — it only costs S$10 for each person to use the studio for an hour, and it even includes a customisable photo strip for each person. You can even get it all for S$8 if you come with four others or more!

How does it all work then? First, take your pick of props from the shelves. There’ll be a fun assortment of toy guns, glasses, wigs and more to choose from. 

Then, choose a booth with your favourite theme. The six booths differ wildly in their themes, ranging from cute aesthetics to “edgy criminal” vibes.

Going for a chill, pastel summer vibe? Try out the first booth, which also happens to be the largest, with rainbows, fluffy clouds and neon lighting for you to pose against.

Become Alice at the Wonderland-inspired booth, featuring chessboard tiles, enchanting roses and a fantastical peek into the world of giant mushrooms through the keyhole behind you.

The fourth booth pulls you back into reality with its nightclub vibes. Show off your best moves on the floor framed by large disco balls and a reflective metallic background. Hot tip: set the ring light to flicker and you can recreate the strobe lights at a nightclub!

Right beside the nightclub booth is a “toilet” with exposed bricks and graffiti that you would find in a dangerous, ulu corner of Singapore. You can even leave your own mark on the graffiti wall (not in the unsanitary kind of way, please!)

A ring light and phone stands are provided at every booth for the best lighting and angle for your photos. Play around with the ring light for more colourful lighting and retake as many photos as you want within the designated time frame. 

At the end of your session, just select your favourite photos to print onto your photo strip, and you can keep the rest of the photos you have on your phones for free. If you would like to print out more photos, just add on S$2 for each strip.

Before you head down to Pixie Loft, we’ve got an exclusive 3+1 deal for you: Every three customers can bring another friend in for free! Just mention the exclusive code “ConfirmGood” to the staff at the counter to redeem this deal. This code will expire on 30 November 2023, so you have plenty of time to create some insta-worthy memories with your besties.

Lights, camera and…action! Ready to bring out your best pose for the cameras at Pixie Loft?
