A quick word about photos

The best photos are taken close up against a white or pale background. It's not necessary to use passport photos or even a proper camera, most camera phones are capable of taking high quality photos suitable for ID cards.

Top tips to remember:

Lighting - not too light or too dark
In focus
Subject isn't too close or too far away
Make sure there is plenty of space around the head to allow for any cropping required in the design process.

We're unable to accept printed photos so they will need to be supplied in digital format.
