However recently, in the early 2000's photo booths made a comeback after photo booth rental services started producing high quality and premium photo booths. Today, BBC has named the photo booth a "must have" at any wedding or party.

5) Believe it or not, for once the USA is not leading in the photo booth industry. (haha just kidding of course) Actually, Europe and Eastern Asia are filled with photo booth stands that can be found everywhere. These photo booths are usually used for portrait photos and passport photos.
