In the past, photo booths usually showed up along the sidewalk. If you desperately needed to get a mugshot taken for your passport, you simply popped into one to take a picture, and out would come a strip of photos. But these days, photo booths are enjoying a healthy revival at events such as parties and weddings where they provide a fun picture-taking experience for guests.

Two commercial photographers in Australia, Marija Ivkovic and Lachlan Moore, have decided to capitalize on this trend and build a fully portable, inflatable photo booth that has an 11-megapixel camera. Images snapped are transferred to a password-protected online gallery where guests can browse and order prints.

No word on rental pricing yet, but you can take a look at the booth's Web site for more information.

Brilliant. Would be a lot of fun at weddings, etc. if the price were reasonable to rent it.
