Photobooths and photo studios in Singapore are a dime a dozen – just take a stroll down Haji Lane and you’ll spot plenty with quirky themes like fish tanks, retro setups, and even subway stations. But a photo studio that lets you flex your artsy side at the same time? Standard Photo Studio is where it’s at.
You’ll get to choose from a range of concept rooms, design your own photo keychains with unlimited beads, and leave with a photostrip.

It’s not exactly the new kid on the block, but Standard Photo Studio, located in MacPherson, has just gotten a glow-up with newly revamped concept rooms. The studio is decked out in nostalgic decor like old-school DVD players, chunky TVs, and hanging vinyls – perfect for snapping a few pics while you wait.

There’s also a DIY corner where you can customise your own keychains, and they also sell film cameras and rolls for all you analogue lovers.
You won’t be stuck with plain backdrops here, as there are 4 concept rooms that are a whole photoshoot experience on their own.

Strike poses with props like bao, durians, and coffee cups in the hawker centre room. It’s giving kopi uncle-core in the best way, and there’s no need to chope a table here.

If you grew up blasting pop-punk hits on your iPod Nano, the 2000s music room will be your jam. It’s painted electric blue and comes with microphones and headphones for you to live out your popstar fantasy.

Here’s something you wouldn’t want to miss: the Flash & Dash package only costs $10, but it comes with way more than you’d expect.
You’ll get 4 minutes in the studio to snap as many pics as your heart desires, followed by 2 minutes to pick your faves for a classic 3-cut photostrip.
After that, pick 2 keychains in cute shapes, and decorate them with unlimited beads and charms. You can even insert a mini photo from the session for a personalised keepsake.

Add-ons are wallet-friendly too. Extra keychains are just $5 each, so no one in your squad has to go home empty-handed. Or, choose to top up $10 to keep all your soft copies.

It’s not just the rooms that are themed – even the frames at Standard Photo Studio are a whole vibe. Each concept comes with its own photostrip design to ensure your pics match the mood.
The hawker centre frame has local grub like satay and ice kacang printed on it, while the ball pit theme brings on the fun with bright pops of colour.

The 2000s music room frame design looks straight out of an album cover.
