Which documents
Photos for licences, passes and ID cards
Alongside passports and visas, we take compliant photos for driving licences, national ID cards, Oyster and travel passes, bus passes, and gun and shotgun licences. Each has its own size and layout, so we photograph to the document rather than using one generic template.
For organisations we take clean, professional photos for company ID cards, staff passes, security and licensing badges, student cards and membership documents, with even lighting and a neutral background so a whole set looks consistent.
Before you come
What to bring and what to wear
Bring the form, or the guidance that came with it, so we can match the size and background exactly. Wear ordinary clothes that contrast with a plain background, keep to a neutral expression with your mouth closed, and remove hats or head coverings unless they are worn for religious or medical reasons.
