Asked for a German passport but the people at the embassy said it looked as if to fit a British passport even though the photo was made for German passport by the software in the shop. So it is not the shop always wrong it can be people at passport office who may having bad day. You should just try and convince them, for me it worked! The girl at the shop was able to cut it down to size thankfully. Staff were friendly. The mirrors was was helpful, fixed my hair and face before snap.

A very nice and professional photographer, I greatly recommend. He took the pictures in no time and was very helpful and understanding (I arrived few minutes before the shop closed and he offered to do it still…) 😊🙌 Amazing service, my pictures were perfect (I was here for French passport). Thank you 1000000!

I had my passport photo done here. It was quick and easy and it cost 15 pounds for eight photos. Update: The photos were refused by the Passport Office after I scanned and uploaded them. My photographs taken on my mobile against a white wall were immediately accepted.
