Frequently asked questions about Shortys
Is the photo booth at Shortys still working?
Yes, as far as we know. We last checked on May 11, 2026. If you turn up and it's out of order, tap "Report an issue" on this page so the next person doesn't waste a trip.
How much is a strip at Shortys, and can I pay by card?
The price is posted on the machine. Cash only — bring coins or small notes. Most analog booths in this range run a few pounds, euros or dollars a strip.
Is Shortys a real film photo booth or a digital one?
Real film. The strip is developed with real photo chemistry inside the machine, so give it a few minutes to drop.
Do I need to book, or can I just walk up to Shortys?
Just walk up. It's a coin-op booth, not a hire service — no booking, no attendant. If the venue is open, the booth is on.
How many photos do you get at Shortys, and how long does it take?
One strip of four shots. The machine takes the four in quick succession, then develops the strip on the spot — usually three to five minutes before it drops into the slot.
What time can I use the booth at Shortys?
Daily Open. The booth is inside the venue, so those are the hours that matter.
How do I get to Shortys?
It's at 2316 2nd Ave, Seattle, Washington in Belltown. Pop the address into your maps app for directions.
Can I get into Shortys with a wheelchair or a pram?
We haven't checked access at this venue. Classic booths have a fixed bench and a curtain, so the booth itself is a tight fit; the venue's own access is the thing to ask them about.
What if the booth at Shortys is out of order when I get there?
It happens — these machines are decades old. Scroll to "Nearest booths" in Seattle for the closest alternative, and tap "Report an issue" so we can flag it for everyone else.
When was Shortys last checked?
May 11, 2026, by us. If you've been more recently, mark it visited on this page — that's how we keep listings honest.
