Photo booths and self-photo studios in Kenya
1 confirmed venues and 0 unconfirmed records are kept separate; they are not combined into a count of working booths. Checked: .
Looking for a place where you take the photos yourself instead of hiring a photographer? So far we have found one in Kenya: NARA on Langata Road, Nairobi, a self-portrait studio where you book a session and operate the camera yourself. We found no Korean-style four-cut booth or photo-strip booth.
This batch covers fixed self-service booths, not wedding or party hire, photographer-operated studios or passport-photo booths.

How to search for a fixed booth
| Term | Meaning | Used by |
|---|---|---|
| self-portrait studio | A room with a fixed camera and lights where you shoot yourself, usually booked by the session. NARA calls itself the first in Kenya. | NARA |
| photo booth (hire) | Most Kenyan results for “photo booth” are event hire companies such as Picha Booth, with no fixed walk-in site. | Kenyan search results |
NARA’s booking page gives only the road name and no coordinates, so it has no map marker; use the map search link. Unconfirmed venues are not shown as confirmed map markers.

NARA Self-Portrait Studio
NARA describes itself as the first self-portrait studio in Kenya. You book a short or medium session on its EasyWeek page and operate the camera yourself; it is open daily from 10:00 to 19:00.
Scope and limits
- This is a first, shallow check, not a nationwide census. We looked at Two Rivers, Garden City, Sarit, The Hub and Westgate malls in Nairobi and found no booth or self-photo studio; we found nothing in Mombasa.
- NARA’s booking page does not say whether prints are included, and it shows prices only inside the booking flow, so this page does not quote them.
- Event hire booths (for example Picha Booth) and photographer-run studios, such as those in Eastleigh’s BBS Mall, are outside this batch.
Locations may change. An open listing does not guarantee that a booth is working today.
