My pictures turned out amazing! I was doing pictures of my husband and my 3 year old for a Russian visa. If you have a toddler you understand how hard it is to get a good passport worthy pictures out of them where they sit still and don't make funny faces. Bruce was so patient with me and this whole process, I finally got it right on my 3rd attempt with my toddler and we got a picture that Bruce was able to work with. Thank you again for your patience and excellent pictures.

I’ve used this service twice and have found them to be very effective and efficient. I appreciated that Bruce let me know that my photos needed to be redone to meet visa standards. My photos were processed and delivered quickly. Great job!

Excellent work by this company. Russian Visa photos are a strange size and none of the local stores could get this accomplished. I sent in photos from one of the chain stores but they had altered it (made the background too white) as to be unusable. Bruce at Passportphotonow just told me to take my own and send back and he was able to make the proper photos very quickly. I highly recommend this service!

I ordered Russian passport photo for my daughter and was surprised when was asked to provide a photo with better quality. Definitely, you can be sure of high quality of the service and all that without the need to bring my daughter somewhere to take a picture. Do it yourself and then just wait for delivery! Thanks a lot!

I echo many of the comments on this page. I needed a photo for my Russian Visa.  I tried many of the local passport photo places.  I told them the dimensions I needed for my photo and got blank stares back from them. It seemed unless I needed a standard 2X2 US passport photo, I was out of luck.  I found Passport Photo Now on the Web and realized they also processed visa photos.  They made the whole process a breeze.  They had great instruction on exactly how to take the picture and how to submit the order. I received good communications from them. The photo was received quickly and it was the prefect size.
