No matter what you’re feeling like, there’s a GIF to express that accurately.īut what if for some reason you can’t find the right GIF at the right time? Well, that’s when you create your own.

However, I decided to make some changes to it. The program for the photo booth is based off of Lara Grant's Tumblr GIF Photo Booth. * I purchased a 3' bar and cut it down to size.
