Such pictures are frequently taken at instant photo booths under harsh lighting - not helped by the fact that you must face the camera head-on, a very unflattering angle and photos can end up looking like criminal mug shots. Booth cameras also produce lower quality images and there are only around 5 attempts to ace it.
But help is at hand to avoid looking less like a
wanted criminal and more like a fabulous you. Go for a passport photo makeover
service. They will take care of everything for you.
These sessions includes makeup, hairstyling and portrait photography. Studios can also touch up the photos to perfection after your selection. removing that pimple or zit.
Clients can also borrow the Corporate
Outfits from the studio to look more professional. Even just donning that
Corporate blazer will make a world of difference.
The makeup and hairstyling for Passport photos is
more natural so u will look more like yourself and avoid you any trouble at
immigration.
You will look at your natural best. The makeup covers or enhances your natural features rather than those extreme makeovers that may change your look. Examples like bone structure and nose shading.
Its also good to ensure your hair is tidy and does
not fail their requirements. Most passport photos require your hair to be off
the face, not blocking the ears and eyebrows.
The editing can also alter hair volume and clear
off those flyaway stray hairs. The studio can even darken those greying white
hairs. You don't need a trip to the salon for colouring.
But why spend so much on your passport photo when
no one but you and the immigration officer will be looking at it? After all,
its much more cost comparing to those photo booths or instant photo studio.
A passport will be used for a long time so it
helps to look good too. Official documents are also part of ones' personal
branding.
