How to Take a Good Passport Photo at Home

Stand about 4 feet from a white wall. Make sure lighting is even — no shadows on your face or the background. Look directly at the camera. Keep a neutral expression. Wear everyday clothing — no uniforms or camouflage. Have someone else take the photo or use a selfie stick to avoid arm-in-frame issues.
