Springfield Passport Photo Requirements 2025

What You Get With Every Service

Every passport photo service includes two identical 2×2 inch photos printed on high-quality photo paper, meeting all current U.S. Department of State requirements. We ensure proper head sizing, neutral expression, and the plain white background that government reviewers expect to see. Springfield families appreciate that we handle infant and child passport photos with the patience and flexibility these situations require. Young children don’t always cooperate for photos, and babies have different expression requirements than adults. We understand these challenges because we’ve been serving Springfield families for over three decades.

What are the current passport photo requirements for 2025?

Current 2025 requirements are stricter than ever. Your photo must be exactly 2×2 inches, taken within the last six months, with your head measuring between 1 and 1 3/8 inches from chin to top of head. You need a neutral facial expression or natural smile, both eyes open, facing directly toward the camera. The background must be plain white or off-white with no shadows on your face or behind you. No glasses are allowed unless you have a medical exception with a doctor’s note. The photo must be printed on photo-quality paper—regular printer paper will be rejected.

How much do passport photos cost at School & Office Annex?

We provide competitive pricing for professional passport photo services in Springfield. Our service includes two identical government-compliant photos printed on proper photo paper, expert positioning and lighting, and verification that your photos meet all current requirements. Unlike some chain stores that charge extra fees for digital copies or rush service, our straightforward pricing covers everything you need for your passport application. Call us at (703) 590-6070 for current pricing, as we often have better rates than the major chains while providing more personalized service.

Can you take passport photos for babies and young children?

Absolutely. We specialize in infant and child passport photos, understanding that little ones require patience and flexibility. For babies, the eyes don’t need to be completely open, and we can work with their natural expressions and positioning needs. Children old enough to follow directions need to have both eyes open with a neutral expression, just like adults. We’ve been helping Springfield families with children’s passport photos for over thirty years, so we know how to work quickly and efficiently while keeping kids comfortable during the process.

What happens if my passport photo gets rejected by the government?

Photo rejections typically happen due to incorrect sizing, poor lighting, wrong background color, or expression issues. When you use our professional service, we verify every requirement before you leave, significantly reducing the chance of rejection. If you followed our process correctly and still encounter issues, we’ll work with you to resolve the situation. However, our thirty-plus years of experience with government photo requirements means rejections are rare when you use our service. We know what passport reviewers look for and ensure your photos meet those standards.

Do you offer same-day passport photo service in Springfield?

Yes, we provide same-day passport photo service during our regular business hours. Most customers are in and out within 15 minutes with their completed photos in hand. No appointment necessary—just walk in when it’s convenient for you. Since we’re located in Springfield with a U.S. Post Office inside our store, you can get your photos taken and submit your passport application in the same visit. This convenience saves Springfield residents time and ensures your application process moves forward without delays.

Why choose School & Office Annex over CVS or other chain stores?

Chain stores treat passport photos like any other transaction, but we understand these photos are connected to important life events—vacations, business opportunities, family visits. We’ve been serving Springfield families since 1990, so we take the time to get it right the first time. You’ll work with experienced staff who know the current requirements inside and out, not part-time employees reading instructions from a manual. Plus, with our U.S. Post Office services available in the same location, you can complete your entire passport process in one convenient visit to a local business that truly cares about your success.
