Passport photo-taking tips
Follow these guidelines to create the perfect passport picture.
Consider the distance
Keep your front-facing camera 16–20 inch (40–50 cm) away from the face. For rear cameras, keep a 4–6 foot (1–2 meter) distance.
Keep your head and body straight
Look directly into the camera and avoid tilting your body. Remember, portrait mode is unacceptable for passport photos.
Prepare good lighting
Take your passport photos in a daylight setting, like near a window on a sunny day. Shadows on your face or in the background are not permitted.

Telegram Profile Photo
The first thing someone who wants to chat with you on Telegram sees is a picture on the left top corner of their screen: your Telegram Profile photo. This is your way of identifying yourself with others, an image that introduces you to your Telegram contacts.
There are many possibilities for your Telegram Profile photo: pictures of you in an iconic place, with your family, with your girlfriend/boyfriend, etc. A good Profile photo can give a nice impression of you, and will catch the attention of your contacts on Telegram.
What is the Telegram Profile Photo?
The Telegram Profile photo is the large image that you will use to identify yourself on this app. Telegram’s privacy feature gives you an incredible amount of control over who can and can’t see your profile picture. You can only show your profile picture to your contacts if you want. You can also specifically choose the contacts, groups, or users from whom you want to hide your profile picture.
Telegram Profile Photo Dimensions
The optimal dimensions for your Telegram profile picture, and also for group pictures are 512px by 512px. Thus, the requested photo is square-shaped, but don’t worry: its system allows you to crop and edit your photo when you upload it.
Remember that the profile picture shown on the main screen will have a round shape. People will see your complete photo only if they click on your image. So, pay attention to the photo you upload: it should never have important elements or parts of your face in the corners because they won’t be shown in the preview.
Telegram Profile Photo Tips
Since your Profile photo is the first thing people see when they try to send you a message on Telegram, you need to make sure it represents you in the right way.
The steps for adding your Telegram profile photo are as follows:
- Go to your phone menu
- Find the Telegram App and tap on it
- Click on the left menu, and go to settings
- Tap on “Set profile photo” and select a photo from your gallery or click the camera icon and upload a photo
- If you want, you can make some final edits to your photo
- Tap the right icon to save the changes
Telegram Profile Photo: Change the background
The Telegram profile photo is a good opportunity to show all of your contacts some of the beautiful places you have been to, but remember that a landscape should never be the only protagonist of your profile photo. It may happen that you travel to some place and take amazing photos of the landscapes, of a landmark, or breathtaking views, but then you try to take a photo of yourself there and you run out of battery, or maybe you just don’t like your appearance. You still want to show your contact on Whatsapp the amazing place you have visited but you have no suitable photos. But don’t panic: our Telegram photo tool is the perfect solution for you!
On the other side, if you want your face to be the focus of the image, busy backgrounds can take the focus off of you, which isn’t ideal if you want a profile photo that portraits you in an accurate way. In this case it is better to use a simple or flat colored background. In this case, our Telegram profile photo editor can help you as well! Continue reading to discover more!
Multiple Profile Pictures on Telegram
Telegram allows you to upload additional profile photos. While the latest photo is the profile picture your contacts will see, they can swipe to see the rest of your pictures.
To upload new profile images, open Settings and tap on the camera icon. You can take a photo, upload an existing one, search the web for a new image, or remove your current photo. Tap your profile picture here to see everything you've uploaded.
