Canadian passport photo requirements are without a doubt amongst the strictest in the world. Our professional passport studios in London are equipped to do them well. For this reason we do charge a little more for Canadian passport photos but we tend to get it right first time. No appointment is necessary and we can usually print them out within 5 minutes but it's always good to let us know you are coming in.It is a requirement for Canadian passport pictures that it is done by a commercial photographer. Photo booth photos are unacceptable as passport photos.
If you are concerned about your appearance and need to look your very best in your passport photos then consider having a passport makeover in our studios - this will reduce the look of wrinkles, bags under the eyes and bad skin tone etc.
