Hi,
I need passport pics ASAP. But as I have 4 lots to get I am way too tight to go to a photo booth. Does anybody know the cheapest and quickest place I can use? I am a member of snap fish but am not sure if their wallet size is pass port size does any body know or have any other ideas? I really need the pics in my hand by Thurs if possible.
Thanks peeps.

Wallet size is the same size as a credit card - far too big for a passport.0

I like you didnt like the thought of putting my money in an unmanned photo booth for passport pics, what if they didnt come out as i wanted, what if the money got swallowed up by the machine and no pics?
My local card shop was doing passport pics by polaroid for £4.99 for each person, be careful with online or photobooth pics as the passport agency are fussy about backgrounds, glare on glasses and the spaces between the edge of the photo, i would rather pay a little more and know its been done properly to the standards of the passport agency than skimp and have my pictures returned saying they are not suitable for the passport thus having to pay out more to get new ones done. They show you the picture before they print it so you can make sure it adheres to the passport agencies requirementsAnd yes the lady in the avatar is me

We've just had my wife's rejected because she was 'too far from the camera' and her face was not 65-75% of the image!0 -
Had my last lot done in a booth in the Post Office (uploaded several to an online site, but they all got a "this might be ok"). The PO booth had a 'face outline' etched on the glass to avoid the too big/small problem. Cost me £4 - BA compared to the £70+ for the failed/retried/retried/sort-of-works-now IT system/passport.0

My local chemist does digital passport photos, printed straight away and with the correct background etc at £3.50 for 4.0

I got mine through paspic (https://www.paspic.com) they were brilliant; good quality, really cheap, quick turn-around and the option of uploading a picture so you can use a picture that is suitable for purpose or scan and upload a passport photo you already have. Brilliant I say!DEBT FREE AND LOVING LIFE0
