How long does it take?

Usually under ten minutes from walking in to walking out with the prints in your hand.

Everyday clothes. No uniforms, and no hat or head covering unless you wear one daily for religious reasons — in which case bring the signed statement the State Department asks for. Glasses have to come off: they are no longer allowed in U.S. passport photos.

Can you photograph a baby?

Yes. Infant photos have the same white background and no-shadow rules, and the baby's eyes should be open if possible. Bring them in and we will work with you until we get a frame that passes.

Can you print a photo I took myself?

Yes, and we will check it against the requirements first. If the framing, background or lighting will not pass, we will tell you before printing and can retake it in store.

Can I get a digital copy for an online application?

Yes — ask at the counter and we will email you the file alongside the prints.

Passport Photos

Passport & Visa Photos while you wait

A rejected passport photo can cost you weeks. We take and print U.S. passport photos to the State Department's specification — 2 x 2 inches, head correctly sized and centred, plain white background, neutral expression, no glare and no shadows — and you walk out with them in a few minutes.

We shoot in-store against a proper backdrop, check the framing before anything is printed, and hand you a printed pair on photo stock, ready to staple to your application. We also print visa and ID photos at the sizes other countries ask for, including the 35 x 45 mm size used across the UK and Europe, and the 2 x 2 inch size used for green card and citizenship paperwork.

Bring the whole family — infants and children included. And if you already took a photo at home and only need it printed to size, bring it in: we will check it against the requirements before we print it, rather than after it comes back rejected.
