Practical Tips for Taking Your Photo
Taking a clear picture at home is simple when you follow basic photography steps. Face a bright window to get natural light on your face without harsh shadows.
Keep the camera at eye level about one to one and a half meters away from your face to prevent any distortion. Ask someone else to take the picture for you instead of holding the camera yourself. You can then use the tool above to crop your image to the correct size.
Printing Your Photo Sheet
Printing your photos correctly is the final step before you submit your application. You can format your cropped image into a standard template using the tool above.
Take that file to any local shop and print it as an ordinary four by six inch photo at a kiosk. Check that the print is sharp, clear, and has natural colors before you hand it in. Avoid any smudges or pixelation on the final paper copy.
