In grade 8, a friend of mine begged her parents for a MacBook Pro, and not knowing anything about computers, they agreed and picked up up a shiny new laptop for her birthday.
While they probably thought their daughter was using it to work on assignments or write emails to friends or edit bad homemade movies like I was doing in my pre-pubescent awkwardness, it was unfortunately used as a thousand-dollar personal Photo Booth machine...
Photo Booth is an incredible tool if you want to snap a few pictures with friends, do your makeup with your MacBook camera, record videos, play around with effects, and so, so much more.
Here's everything you need to know about using Photo Booth on your Mac!

How to take quick 4 pictures with Photo Booth on Mac

How to change your background with Photo Booth on Mac
One option that Photo Booth has is an almost green screen effect of sorts, but without all the hassle of a green screen!
All you have to do is pick your background, step out of frame, and then step back in to be transported to the moon, a rollercoaster, or a beautiful, sunny beach, and so, so much more.
- Launch Photo Booth.
Click the Effects button the right side of the screen.
- Click the arrows along the bottom of the screen until you get to the fourth dot/fourth effects option screen.
Click the specific background you would like to apply to your Photo Booth photo or video.
- Prompt will appear asking you to Step out of frame.
Your background will appear and you can now take pictures/videos at the bottom of the ocean.
PRO-TIP: Once the background has been set, do not move your computer at all — it will mess up the background image and distort your final product.
What types of preset backgrounds are available?
- Cloaking Device, which makes you feel like you're up in the clouds.
- Eiffel Tower, which put you right in the heart of Paris.
- Rollercoaster, which simulates riding a rollercoaster at your favorite theme park.
- Pop Art, if you want to get a little Andy Warhol about things.
- Sunset, which gives you the illusion of a romantic sunset view on a sandy beach.
- Hologram, which gives you the illusion that you're chilling on the moon.
- Fish, where you can find yourself swimming around with some of your fave underwater pals.
- Yosemite, which allows you to experience a little slice of nature.
How to customize your background with Photo Booth on Mac
- Launch Photo Booth.
Click the Effects button the right side of the screen.
- Click the arrows along the bottom of the screen until you get to the fifth dot/fifth effects option screen.
Drag and drop any photo you would like into one of the blank User Backdrop slots.
You can then use that image in the exact same way you use the preset ones on Photo Booth.
How to make a slideshow with Photo Booth on Mac
- Launch Photo Booth.
Click View in the upper right corner of your screen.
Click Start Slideshow.
You can then edit, move, delete, and send specific photos from your slideshow to iPhoto.
You can also play around with the order using the index sheet option Photo Booth provides for slideshows.
How to share your photo or video from Photo Booth on Mac
- Launch Photo Booth.
Click the image or video you would like to share.
- Click the Share icone in the lower right corner.
Click on the option you would like to share with on the list that appears on screen.
You can choose to share your image or video to Facebook, Messenger, set it as your Profile picture, send it to Notes, and so much more.
