Passport photo tips so you don’t get rejected!
Why the Sad Face? Because my Country makes me do it.. There’s a prevailing theory on why government
officials do not want you to smile in your passport photos…
They want you to look like you’re going to look after traveling all night in a packed airplane, surrounded
by screaming children, irritated travelers, being fed peanuts for dinner, and crammed into a seat meant
for a short, skinny, waif.
You need to look angry, hungry, tired, frustrated, disheveled, and worn out.
Okay, maybe not quite that bad, but you get the idea. They want your photo and your face to look similar
once the machine at the customs counter tries to match you to your passport photo. But that doesn’t
mean you REALLY have to look that way. In fact, here at Thomas Bruce Studio, we pride ourselves on
providing you the very best passport photo on the market. We light it properly, we make it razor sharp,
and we allow your eyes to smile without forcing your mouth to follow suit. It’s the best of both worlds!
