Biometric Photo Requirements Cherry Hill

What Makes Photos Government-Compliant

Current U.S. passport photos must measure exactly 2×2 inches with a white or off-white background, showing you facing the camera directly with a neutral expression and both eyes open. Glasses are no longer allowed unless you have a medical reason with a doctor’s statement.

Cherry Hill residents often don’t realize how strict these requirements have become. Photos must be taken within the last 6 months, and you need a neutral facial expression with both eyes open, facing the camera directly with uniform lighting. Poor lighting that’s too bright or creates shadows will cause rejection.

We handle passport photos for all ages, including babies and children, which requires special techniques since it’s okay if a baby’s eyes aren’t entirely open, but all other children must have their eyes open. These biometric photos are crucial for verifying identity and work with facial recognition technology used by immigration services.

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

Our photos come with verification certificates that ensure they meet government standards, which significantly reduces rejection risk. We use the Kodak Moments Passport & ID Photo System that automatically verifies your photos meet all government requirements before printing. If somehow a photo doesn’t meet standards, we offer a money-back guarantee on our service. However, our advanced photo software ensures your photos meet official passport requirements, reducing the chances of rejection and avoiding application delays. The verification certificate serves as proof that your photo was taken using government-approved equipment and processes.
Yes, we offer passport photos for all ages, including babies and children. For babies and toddlers, we recommend laying them on a plain white or off-white sheet and ensuring there are no shadows on their face. It’s perfectly acceptable if a baby’s eyes are not entirely open, but all other children must have their eyes open. We use special techniques like photographing from above while children lie on a white surface. Remember that passport applications for children under 16 must be submitted in person, so you’ll need to bring your child to the passport acceptance facility.
Your printed passport photos are available immediately after your photo is taken. A printed passport photo is typically available in a few minutes after having your photo taken. There’s no waiting period or appointment needed. We’re available in-store at most times with no appointment needed. The entire process from photo capture to printed results takes just minutes. If you want a digital copy sent to your email, that’s available for an additional fee and is sent immediately. This quick turnaround helps when you’re working against passport application deadlines.
Biometric photographs are more stringent and standardized versions of passport photos, meant to work seamlessly with facial recognition technology. Though all biometric photos qualify as passport photos, not every passport photo meets biometric standards. Biometric photos have more stringent technical specifications established by the International Civil Aviation Organization, including accurate positioning of facial features, uniform lighting, and high image resolution for automated facial recognition systems. These photos allow facial recognition systems to quickly and accurately link the photo to the person, making identity checks faster at borders and helping deter forgery. Our system ensures your photos meet these higher biometric standards required for modern passport processing.
We accept walk-ins with no appointment needed. Our one-stop shopping approach means you can handle passport photos along with other printing and mailing services whenever it’s convenient for you. Since we have an official US Post Office inside our store, many Cherry Hill residents find it convenient to get their photos and handle other passport-related services in the same visit. Photos are ready immediately, so you’re not making multiple trips or waiting for callbacks. Just come in when you’re ready, and we’ll take care of everything on the spot.
You cannot wear a uniform, clothing that looks like a uniform, or camouflage clothing. Avoid wearing distracting patterns, and wear everyday clothing. A solid-color top is suggested, and you should avoid distracting prints, patterns, hats, and sunglasses. Before taking your photo, remove any accessories such as glasses or hats, then relax with a neutral expression. Eyeglasses must be removed unless you have a medical reason, in which case you’ll need a signed note from your doctor. Head coverings should be removed unless worn for religious or medical purposes, and if kept, include a signed statement that it’s worn daily for religious reasons or provide a doctor’s statement for medical headwear.
