Passport photo guide

Take a passport-style photo at home

Start with an unedited original, even lighting and the background required by the document issuer. Use PhotoReady only for manual size and crop preparation.

Capture first

Use a recent color photo and a steady camera at eye level.
Keep the face sharp with even light and no strong shadow.
Leave space around the head and shoulders for the final crop.

Crop second

Choose the matching dimensions only after checking the issuing authority. Position the source manually; PhotoReady does not retouch, remove backgrounds or certify compliance.
