Getting a passport photo can be a frustrating experience. Especially if you need an international passport photo which many places cannot do. We now offer custom passport sessions at the studio. You can review the images as we take them, choose the one you want and we’ll size it correctly for you. We do not however make the prints, we’ll set it up so you can get 2 images up on a print and you can get your prints made anywhere that has printing services.

While it is quite a bit cheaper to get a passport photo made at various locations in town we offer personalized service, no waiting, professional portrait lighting which is flattering and we’ll shoot until you’re comfortable with the images.

Many of our clients just add on this service while they’re in having their headshots done.
