Executive Summary

Pharmacy and post office photo booths often charge $15 to $25 for two simple passport photos. Learn how to take a compliant biometric photo on your phone and generate a ready-to-print 4x6" 6-photo grid for pennies.

Official Government Biometric Guidelines (US 2x2", India 3.5x4.5cm, UK 3.5x4.5cm)

All major immigration authorities require neutral facial expressions, white/off-white background, centered head height between 50% and 69% of the frame, and zero shadows behind the ears.

How to Take a Flawless Photo on Your Smartphone

Stand 4 feet away from a well-lit white wall during daylight. Position your camera at eye level and ensure both ears and shoulders are clearly visible.

  • No Glasses or Headwear (unless for religious purposes).
  • Even Natural Lighting: Avoid harsh overhead fluorescent bulbs that cast neck shadows.
  • High Resolution: Use the rear smartphone camera instead of the lower-resolution selfie lens.
