I recently wrote a post about a party for my friend Marie-Louise, that I was excited to be going to. One of my readers recognised her as an actor, so I have decided to show you this more recent, professional photo. It comes from her profile at the agency that represents her.

Her full name is Marie-Louise Walker and her IMDb page is here.

Still stunning Mar-Lou!

This is the original photobooth photo of my fabulously gorgeous friend, that I posted on 7 December.  It was taken in a Melbourne photobooth in 1996.

I was thrilled to find that my blog has been mentioned at another online magazine, Lomography.com. The post was written by soundfoodaround.

After reading the post 365 Days, 52 Weeks from WordPress’s own blog, I felt inspired to get back to
my personal chronology of booth photos, which was the inspiration for my starting this blog in 2011. I will endeavour to add at least one strip of photos from the series each week for the 52 weeks of 2013. So with that in mind, I start the year with the next in the series, below.

Happy New Year to you all. I hope 2013 is inspirational and fun for us all.

2 November 1997, Spencer Street Station, Melbourne

This strip was taken at a Melbourne train station, after I had been to visit my friend Liarne. I went to stay with her at a house she was renting at the seaside town of Torquay, where she still lives.

This strip is part of the series Photobooth 41 Year Project. You can see all the posts that document the series by clicking here.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone. Thanks for all your support and great comments over the past twelve months.

I hope you are all looking forward to the holiday season as much as I am! See you all in 2013.

Through this blog I have come across other photobooth enthusiasts who share their photos online.

Meg from Denver, Colorado lives in France. At her blog De Quelle Planète Est-Tu? (What planet are you from?) she blogs about her travels and her life in Paris. She is very fond of automatic photo machines.

Below is a selection of some of the great photos from her archive of photobooth related posts, which you can see in full by clicking here.

Many thanks to Meg for permission to share these.
