A photobooth across Binondo Church allows Manila visitors to see themselves featured on the front page of a newspaper.

The initiative lets Filipinos take home their own Binondo-themed newspaper print featuring their photo.

They can also choose from different headline templates.

The photobooth also allows visitors to receive digital copies of their photos and a GIF of their photo experience through a QR Code.

Pinoys can also have their photos retaken up to two times if they are not satisfied with the results.

The photobooth is red and operates 24/7.

It is located at a corner of Plaza San Lorenzo Ruiz, across from Binondo Church in Manila.

The initiative was created by Red Studio, which said it is available “until the end of the month, but might extend.”
