Take, Develop, and Print a Photo on Your Own

DARKROOM Photomatic

Episode 3 of The8, Mingyu, and Vernon’s vlog Let’s Hang Out with Seventeen was filmed at DARKROOM Photomatic. The members took each other’s photos using a film camera and visited this self-photo studio to print the photos. Its red acrylic sign and a variety of portraits hanging on the wall make the photo studio more special and catch people’s attention. As its name suggests, DARKROOM Photomatic means the darkroom for photomatics which made self-portraits more popular. Visitors can take a few photos using a Hasselblad camera that was adored by fashion photographers, and print them using chemicals in the darkroom. The entire photographing process is performed by each visitor themselves. In the digital era where we can take and delete photos with ease, the film camera’s analog photos make a special souvenir.
