This is the second time I used this site. Both times were incredibly fast - completion within hours, and arrived in mail within a couple of days. High quality and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend to anyone needing pictures for any purpose. Thank you so much.

Terrific service! My local passport photo locations could not accommodate my needs for Canadian citizenship photos so I found this service. This is so much easier! I will do our US photos with them next time too! It is simple to take the photo, send it off and they do the rest. They emailed me right away to confirm they received the photos and that they checked to make sure it would work. They matched the specifications exactly. Also I received the photos in just a few days and I am across the country and the pandemic is still happening. Very pleased with the excellent service!

So far, so good! I uploaded pic's first thing on Monday morning and they were shipped out the same day. Instructions that Canada needed were followed to the letter (info on back of photo). I have mailed them off so hopefully they fit the need for my Citizenship application.

I have nothing but good things to say about this company, PassportPhotoNow. We needed a citizenship photo done for my husbands Canadian Citizenship application, but we live in the United States. Walmart and places like it can only provide photos for U.S. passports which are a different size than what is required for Canadian passports etc. I found PassportPhotoNow online, it was real easy to take a photo with my cell phone and email it for processing. Bruce Hallstrom contacted me right away to let me know of the adjustments I needed to make to my sent photos. I retook them, sent them and he actually mailed them directly to Canada for me. They were received in Canada very quickly. It was so easy. I will definitely use PassportPhotoNow again in the future. Awesome service! -Betty Ann Rhea

Passport Photo Now is absolutely first rate! All aspects of the service were fantastic, from the clarity and ease of use of their website and the communication regarding the order, to the quality of the photos and the timeliness and professionalism of delivery. Couldn't be happier or recommend Bruce and his team more highly. Should I need similar services in the future I wouldn't bother going anywhere else! Sincerely, Ian Blackman

Service is AMAZING! Im aways a little skeptical about anything online and cant lie was not sure what I was going to get but figured it was worth a shot for the price and was the cheapest option I could find! Especially the circumstances of everything right now and living in the states you cant find many people whom are willing to do this service. let me tell you.... THE SERVICE WAS AMAZING! Bruce communicated with me the whole time and sent update emails which just puts you at ease! Pictures turned out perfect and exactly what I needed! Recommend this 100% you wont be disappointed! Thank you Bruce!

Canadian Citizenship Photos
Canadian Citizenship photos can be made from a picture you take with your camera by using our online service or with our mobile passport photo service. We will print them too the exact specification that your government will accept.
Format(Size) Dimensions | Two (2) identical photographs must be submitted, They should be 50mm x 70mm in Width and Height. They should show a close up of your face and the top of your shoulders so that your face takes up between 45% - 51% of the face or 31mm to 36mmfrom the chin to the crown of the head. The photo must clearly show the person's facial features in a straight forward position from the tip of the chin to the crown of the head as well as the left and right sides of the face. In the case of voluminous hair, it must be ensured that the head (including the hairstyle) is fully depicted without reducing the size of the face, if possible. The face must be centered in the photo and no more than six months old, to ensure an up to date likeness. |
Background | The background should be white. The background should not have any pattern. The photo should show only the person to be photographed (no other persons or objects in the photo). No shadows must be shown on the background. |
Expression | You need to take the photo with a neutral expression with your mouth closed, not laughing, smiling, frowning and not showing your teeth. With both eyes open, contrived expressions such as raised eyebrows or squinting are not acceptable. |
Head Position | The head of the person photographed should be neither at an angle nor turned (portrait style). Your head must be square to the camera; your face can not be slightly rotated and or tilted. Your face and eyes must be straight towards the camera so we can see an equal amount of each ear and cheek. |
Eyes & Line of sight | The person in the photo must look directly into the camera. The eyes must be open and dearly visible and may not be covered by hair or spectacle frames. The camera lens must be at the eye level of the person being photographed , not from above or below |
Lighting | The face must be evenly illuminated by the flash on the camera. Reflections or shadows on the face as well as red eyes must be avoided. |
Photo Quality | The photo should be printed on high-quality paper with a print resolution of at least 600 dpi (especially when taken with a digital camera). The photo must be neutral in color and skin tones should appear natural. The photo should have no creases or impurities . Photograph cannot be manipulated, for example, by removing spots or softening lines. Photos must be in color. |
Wearing Glasses | Please take off your glasses; it will guarantee your photo passing. If you must wear your glasses there cannot be any glare anywhere on the glass and the frame cannot cover any part of your eyes. The eyes must be clearly recognizable (reflections from glasses, tinted glasses or sunglasses are not permitted). |
Head wear | Generally speaking, head wear is not permitted. Exceptions are possible, especially for religious reasons. In such cases, the face must be visible from the lower tip of the chin to the forehead. No shadows should be visible on the face. |
Focus/Contrast | The face must be sharply focused in all areas, rich in contrast and clear. |
Back of Photo | Provide the name of the photographer or the studio, the studio address and the date the photos were taken on the back of both the photos. |
Infants or very small children who are unable to support themselves should be photographed
lying down from above. Hands, arms, etc. used to support the child should not be visible.
