Although it has only been open for over a week, the Lulihu photobooth store, located at 42 Ham Nghi, Dong Ha City, has attracted many young people. Photobooth is simply understood as an instant automatic photo shooting service, performed in a compact photo booth with a minimalist background, bright white flash light and extremely fast operation. In just a short time, the photographer has a set of photos printed on the spot, both stylish and unique. This service was once a craze among young people about 15 years ago, and is now "hot" again when it has been upgraded with many more modern features, from instant photo editing, creating AR/VR effects, to the ability to print high-quality photos or share photos online via email, QR code.

The owner of Lulihu photobooth, Nguyen Duong Nhat Phuong, said that the attraction of the photobooth is the spontaneous, natural photo-taking experience without the need for elaborate editing. In particular, after taking photos, users can edit photos directly on the touch screen, add unique effects, change colors, and even write or draw on the photo. This helps each photo become a work of art with a strong personal stamp, expressing their own style and personality. This is the key factor that attracts young people, who are always looking for creative ways to express themselves.

“To attract customers, we have invested in a modern, high-definition camera system, equipped with many types of costumes, accessories... At Lulihu photobooth, customers can freely choose cute accessories such as glasses, hats or teddy bears in the photo booth, freely creating with funny expressions and styles,” Nhat Phuong confided.

At present, on average, this photobooth shop welcomes about 100 customers every day, most of whom are girls between the ages of 12 and 30. In addition, the shop also attracts many couples and groups of close friends to take photos to preserve beautiful memories. With affordable prices, only from 60,000 - 100,000 VND/2 prints, the photographer owns high-quality printed photos, preserving memorable moments, and at the same time having an interesting experience without needing a "photographer".

Two friends Bui An An and Le Nguyen Thao Nhi (born in 2013), from Dong Ha City, have become regular customers of Lulihu photobooth after many visits. Quickly choosing accessories displayed at the store to bring into the photo booth, An An shared: “Before, I only knew about photobooth through tiktok and really wanted to experience the feeling of taking photos like this once. So when we learned about this store, we immediately went to take some souvenir photos. I like taking photos this way because it's fun and quick to get photos."

Thao Nhi continued: “Taking photos is extremely simple, you just need to charge the machine, choose the frame and the number of photos you want, then pose in front of the automatic camera to have beautiful photos to keep as memories. If there are more photobooth stores like this in Dong Ha City, I still want to go to all of them to have more experiences.”

Currently, in addition to Lulihu photobooth, young people also often come to this photography service at Vincom Commercial Center, address 252 Hung Vuong, Dong Ha City. Here, the photo booths are designed in different styles such as: overhead photobooth, blue room, red room... creating a comfortable feeling for the photographer.

According to the staff, the attractive point that makes young people excited is that the photobooth is integrated with AR technology that allows users to add motion effects, from cute filters to unique virtual characters, change colors, backgrounds, add text or drawings... From there, it helps the photographer freely create the photo they love, making each photo a work of art with a strong personal mark, expressing their own style.

Delighted to show us his newly “baked” photos, Nguyen Bao Thang, from Dong Ha City, and his girlfriend said: “When we have time, we go to the photobooth to have fun and save memories. I can stick the photos on the wall, put them on the table or clip them in my diary as a way to preserve memorable moments of both of us.”

As for Le Ngoc Hoai Mi, in Cam Lo district, photobooth is a tool that helps her and her friends turn every moment into artistic photos by allowing them to customize effects, frames, and add unique stickers...

“In addition to the automatically printed photo, we can also download the electronic version to our phones to save or share the photos immediately on social networks. I think this is the feature that makes photobooths “hot” as they are now, helping people easily show off their interesting moments on social networks or save them as souvenirs.”

There is no need for too many staff at each photobooth shop because all the steps from choosing costumes, depositing money, taking photos, printing... can be done by the user themselves. Not only in Quang Tri, the photobooth trend is becoming more and more popular among young people all over the country because of the interesting experiences it brings.

With reasonable cost and fun atmosphere, photobooth not only helps to record memorable moments but also brings joy and connection between friends.
