Photo service FAQs for Brixton Southern customers
Is it possible to take compliant UK passport photographs, and can several family applications be handled together?
This can usually be handled once we have checked the source material. We prepare the photograph for the relevant UK application route and can supply the required printed or digital result. See our UK passport photo service. Family applications can be handled together, but each person and document type is checked separately. Please mention any deadline when asking us to recommend a route.
Can I ask your team to provide photo gift vouchers or printed photo gifts, and will you confirm the total price before ordering?
You can ask us to assess the job before committing to an option. Gift choices depend on whether you want a studio experience, photographs or another printed item. Start with our studio photography gift vouchers. We confirm the selected product, quantity, optional extras and total price before completing the order. Label separate groups so the requested result is unambiguous.
Is it possible to photograph babies and young children for passport applications, and what happens if the application rules have changed?
This can usually be handled once we have checked the source material. Baby photographs need patience as well as the correct background, pose and dimensions for the application. Our baby passport photo page explains how we help. If official guidance has changed, we use the latest applicable requirements rather than an outdated sample. Please mention any deadline when asking us to recommend a route.
Can your Highgate shop print photographs directly from a phone or camera, and which file or original should I provide?
Our Highgate shop can help with this service. Use the highest-quality original image rather than a screenshot or social-media copy. Our photo printing guide explains the main print and enlargement choices. Provide the highest-resolution original available and include the required size and quantity. For rare, damaged or unidentified material, contact us before bringing the whole collection.
Is it possible to supply digital passport photographs for online applications, and do I normally need an appointment?
This can usually be handled once we have checked the source material. Digital applications may require a file, an upload route or another authority-specific format. We check the selected route before preparing your digital passport photograph. Most passport and ID photographs are handled without an appointment, subject to current opening arrangements. Please mention any deadline when asking us to recommend a route.
Can your Highgate shop produce enlargements and poster-size photo prints, and what print or digital choices are available?
Our Highgate shop can help with this service. A sharp, full-resolution source file gives the best enlargement, although we can assess older or smaller files before printing. Our printing page covers the service. The available output depends on the product, so specify whether you need prints, files or both. For rare, damaged or unidentified material, contact us before bringing the whole collection.
Is it possible to photograph professional actors’ headshots, and will you confirm the session price before booking?
This can usually be handled once we have checked the source material. Actors’ headshots should look natural, current and suitable for casting use. We discuss clothing and intended roles before your actors’ headshot session. We confirm the chosen package, optional extras and booking price in advance. Please mention any deadline when asking us to recommend a route.
