If you urgently need a passport picture and cannot wait until the 15th June for our professional photographers to take one for you, we can help you out.

Here are some tips on how to take your photo at home...

  • The photographer should stand or kneel with their back to a large window.
  • The subject should be minimum 4 feet from camera.
  • The backdrop should be 2 feet from subject.
  • The backdrop could ideally be a large bed sheet in light grey or off white.
  • Pulled tightly to avoid creases.
  • Camera should be level with the subjects eyeline.
  • Allow plenty of space around the head do not crop close to the head.
