My friend and I love to take photos. We went to many locations for that specific purpose and this time we decided to try the Selfie Museum in Austin.
We went at 12:20 pm on Saturday, there was nobody there, I don’t know if it’s just our luck or the museum is not that popular.
All in all, some locations were cool, the light and selfie posts were everywhere. That’s a huge plus.
Now for the cons:
- very few locations, mostly unimaginative
- tiny rooms where walls get into focus doesn’t make for a good photo
- the light on many places hits the face directly from the top and adds a bad glow (shiny foreheads all day)
- we were told that there was a time limit (1h), though we were not kicked out when exceeding that limit, maybe because the place was empty.
I went to the selfie museum in Houston (TFTI) and I’d say that was a better experience: big rooms, great variety of installations, there was helpful staff that can give hints how to pose or can take a picture of you if you need, no time limit.
Conclusion: not really worth visiting.
