After seeing people so in love with watching me make tintypes, I decided to find a way for people to see their photos develop. — Ian Azariah
“After seeing people so in love with watching me make tintypes, I decided to find a way for people to see their photos develop,” Azariah said.
“I rigged up a custom-built window made of rubylith, which filters UV light so it’s safe for developing, a custom-built tricycle with a dark room on the back of it and a safelight to increase the visibility of the process.”It’s not just those visiting the pub who use the rare photo booth.“I get to see grandparents, parents and children visit to take photo after photo together, smiling.
But there have been a host of challenges threatening the existence of the remaining analog photo booths, of which about 500 are in operation worldwide, according to“The Russian company that was making the light-sensitive paper stopped manufacturing it in 2007 and it’s run out,” said Azariah, who has managed to import light-sensitive strips from Czechoslovakia.
