Wondering about our reliability? You can see what PhotoAiD customers say about us on Trustpilot:
This is a fast, affordable, and high-quality way to get a passport photo. I had gone to a Walgreens, and the photo was under awful fluorescent lights, and I looked hideous and according to their template, it wasn't correct, but I was told, "Oh don't worry, it always says that." My husband is a professional photographer, so I just had him take a nice photo against a white background, loaded it up into the app, got it verified and got my photos within a few days. I especially appreciate that someone from customer service followed up with me to make sure that I received them and that everything was as it should be. I'm happy with this service and would definitely use this service again.

How to Take Your Passport Photo at Home
Taking passport photos with your phone is easy if you follow these guidelines:
- Position your phone about 20 inches (50 cm) away from your face. You can place it on a flat surface, use a tripod, or have someone photograph you.
- Stand straight and face the camera, looking directly at the lens. Ensure your shoulders are even and your head is not tilted.
- Take the photo in natural daylight near a window; avoid yellow-tinted lights and shadows on your face or the background.
