What we do

Seven tools that work together, on any phone or computer.

Passport & visa photos

Make a photo for 24 passports, visas and IDs, including the US, UK, Schengen, India and Saudi Arabia. We crop it to the exact official size and check it against the rules: head size, eye line, background and more.

Choose your document

Live camera guide

Using your phone or laptop camera? An outline shows where your face should be, and tells you to move closer, look straight or open your eyes, before the photo is taken.

Digital photo for online forms

For online applications, you get a file at the exact pixel size and file size the official website asks for, ready to upload.

6×4 inch print sheet

For paper applications, download a sheet with several photos on it. Print it at any photo shop or pharmacy for a small fee, then cut out the photos.

Photo resizer

Make any picture the exact KB and pixel size a form asks for, such as under 50 KB or 200 × 230 px. You see the file size before you download.

Signature resizer

Resize a photo of your signature to 10–20 KB, or any size you need. We make the paper white and the ink clear.
