Or, forms can be obtained from any passport agency, acceptance facility and most Post Offices.

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR - Because a white background is required, it is strongly recommended that you do NOT wear a white blouse, shirt, or jacket. All other colors are acceptable.

OTHER PHOTOS - We can take photos for almost every other identification requirement. For example: visas, foreign citizenship, gun registry, citizenship, naturalization, educational applications, etc. However, you MUST bring along the application forms as photo sizes, signature and stamp and placement requirements are not all the same.

FACIAL EXPRESSION - Open-mouthed smiles showing your teeth are not allowed in US and most other identification photos. The face must have a relaxed, neutral expression.

GLASSES - We strongly suggest that glasses not be worn when the photo is taken because glare can cause rejection.

REJECTED PHOTOS - If we have taken the photo, chances are that it will not be rejected, as we make sure that they meet application standards. If they are rejected, we will retake them at no charge.

YOUR APPEARANCE - Try to dress nice, comb your hair, and trim beard, etc as you will when you are traveling. The closer you resemble your photo, the fewer problems you will have. Plus, you will have this passport for the next ten years.
