Passport Photos

Going on vacation? Need a passport? At Foto Source you can get passport photos, citizenship and visa photos, and other ID photos while you wait. Our expert photographers ensure that all photos meet government regulations and passport specifications. No delays!

• A neutral background must be used.
• Eyes must be open and clearly visible. Glasses are acceptable as long as you can see the eyes.
• Photos must be clear, sharp and in focus.
• Shadows are unacceptable.
• There must be no reflection or glare on the face or glasses.
• Photos must be originals and not taken from an existing photo.
