Has anyone actually had taken in these booths a passport photo they actually like? £5today for a photo that is awful. Because you now have to remove glasses and of course can't smile I look grim. Maybe seeing myself as others see me :-D |

Also it is five months since my face saw any sun so the booth lights make me look washed out. |

I don't look washed out on my passport - more washed away |

My hair is white, and now that the booths no longer have a dark background, my hair is almost invisible!! DVLA accepted it though, so obviously OK. :-| :-| :-| |

I've kept all my old passports - from the first one when I was 19. It's pretty grim looking through them and not something I do very often. What the hell happened? :-0 :-( |

OH had a DVLA photo taken at the PO - he'd agree about looking washed out. |

Would recommend that you go to a photo shop like Bonus Print. |

Passport photos for Canadian passports HAVE to be taken by a professional photographer |

I occasionally come across one knocking around a drawer, taken in our teens. We are in the throes of heady love, in a passionate embrace. |

Passport photos tend to be very grim-faced. |

My mate went to have his photos taken in a booth. First attempt, he had pressed the wrong button and got one large one instead of four small. He paid again and had four small ones taken, only to be told in the post office to go back and have them done again, only this time without his hat!! Bob |
