A Korean-style photo studio · Charleston, SC
POSE on Market
Five self-service photo booths across from the City Market — an elevator, a Charleston scene, two clean backdrops, and a high-angle booth that shoots from above. Walk in, pick a booth, and leave with a printed strip in minutes.
Booths
Studio lighting, five booths, and prints in seconds.
POSE is a self-service photo studio on the corner of Church Street and Market Street. Pick a booth, choose your frame on the screen inside, and the booth handles the lighting, the countdown, and the prints. If you need a hand with anything, an attendant is there to help.
- Studio lighting
- Soft, even light that looks good on everyone, any time of day. It's why the photos look like a studio session.
- Five booths, five looks
- Step into the elevator, pose in front of a Charleston scene, keep it simple with one of two clean backdrops, or try the high-angle booth for a shot from above. Each booth is its own room — walk into the one you like.
- Self-service, with help if you need it
- No appointment needed. You run the session yourself from the screen inside the booth — choose your frame, pay, and the countdown starts. An attendant is available if you'd like some help.
- Prints in seconds
- Your strip prints on the spot, in seconds, on real photo paper. Choose color or black-and-white and a frame that fits the occasion.
- Digital copies by QR
- Every strip prints with a QR code. Scan it and the photos are on your phone.
How it works
Four steps, one strip.
It's self-service and takes about five minutes from start to finish — most of that is deciding who stands where. If you have a question at any point, an attendant is there to help.
