Photobooths have always existed, but recently they’ve seen a resurgence in popularity. As the world has grown accustomed to capturing moments, people, and everything under the sun on our mobile devices, there remains a longing to truly immortalize them beyond the screens.
If you’re looking to spice up your feed or uniquely capture memories, look no further than Kodaki Express Photobooth. With creative backdrops, layouts, and designs, these photobooths act as time capsules, preserving memories through their vintage themes and aesthetics. Kodaki was founded by Bella and Harvey out of their love for photography to document milestones. The name “Kodaki” comes from a Hiligaynon/Ilonggo phrase meaning “Take a picture,” honoring Bella’s late grandmother, who loved photographing her as she was growing up.
As the first and only vintage-style express photobooth in Poblacion, Kodaki is the perfect side activity before, between, or after visits to date spots, niche indie cafés, and the metro’s vibrant nightlife.
After all, photobooth photos serve as tangible mementos — adorable snapshots to cherish from all walks of life, whether it’s longtime couples and new lovers on dates, girlfriends enjoying the time of their lives at cafés, or a barkada celebrating together. A photobooth can effortlessly create lasting memories and seamlessly become part of any itinerary.
Sure enough, Kodaki adds a special touch to noteworthy moments for the evening crowd and nightlife enthusiasts, whether it’s bar-hopping, pre-game rituals, or post-concert, gig, and live music gatherings in Poblacion.
Moreover, Kodaki goes beyond Poblacion, bringing their photobooths on the road for parties, events, and pop-ups. Even after a party filled with great music, instead of just capturing photos on your phone, Kodaki lets you preserve them in fun, tangible keepsakes. For tourists, backpackers, or anyone new to the area, catching a favorite artist or band, Kodaki offers a quirky, affordable souvenir while exploring Metro Manila’s vibrant landscape.
Even better, Kodaki also offers the option to turn photo strips into adorable mini keychain keepsakes — perfect for immortalizing post-concert moments with significant others, friends, or spontaneous encounters. It’s simple to request: just let the booth attendant know, and your keychain is ready on the spot.
Looking ahead, Kodaki continues to expand its offerings, including photostrip frames, stickers, and albums, making it an even more delightful way to preserve memories.
