UK Passport compiant photographs
Good morning
Could anyone recommend a reliable but reasonable (!) place to get passport size photos, compliant to UK Passport requirements. My passport expires in June next year and I will have to apply for a replacement one from the US. My husband has had lots of photos taken from various places here in the past for his work permit applications/renewals but they were not of great quality and were certainly not printed to the required size. They all look like they have been cut to size by hand i.e. none of them look identical. I am pretty sure they would not meet all the strict requirements for UK passport photos where it states they must not be cut to size, no shadows etc etc. I would rather not risk sending off the application and having it rejected because the photos were not acceptable. Thanks for any responses.

I used to get mine - as did loads of people on the shop on spring garden highway(not sure if it called that) but as you drive past immigration and swing round past the helicopter and parking area as if you going to port its there on the left a row of little shops - was the cheapest place i found but cant remember how much and you just tell them its for a passport and they do the correct size

Morning all,
I have just had my new passport back from from Washington last week. I used the photo place which is on the same line of shops as cave shepherd near to Sandy Lane on the west coast road. I think its the same place Razzamattaz is reffering to. $20 for 6 photos. I sent them away with renewal forms and had my passport back so they must do photos which conform to the required standard.

Ok - great thanks - I will try the place recommended on the West Coast first -I assume it's in the Sunset Crest parade of shops where FCIB/the large Cave Shepherd is as I have not noticed a photo place in the West Coast Mall.
