Passport Photos for Babies, Infants & Toddlers
Getting passport photos for a baby is genuinely challenging — but it doesn't have to mean a stressful trip to a photo studio. Take a few photos at home and let us do the hard part.
Why Baby Passport Photos Are Tricky
- Babies can't hold their head straight on demand
- They may fall asleep without warning
- White background requirement is hard to achieve naturally at home
- Eyes-open requirement is difficult with newborns
- Most automated online tools can't handle the shadows, background issues, and head positioning that come with baby photos
How to Take a Baby Passport Photo at Home
- Lay the baby on their back on a plain white sheet or blanket on the floor
- Photograph from directly above with your phone or camera
- Use natural light — avoid flash directly on the face
- Take many shots — babies move. You'll get a usable one.
- Target a moment when eyes are open and looking upward
- Make sure the full face is visible with no obstructions

What We Fix
Unlike automated tools that only crop, we manually fix every baby photo:
- Background cleared to white — even if the blanket has shadows or texture
- Exposure and lighting corrected
- Head straightened if slightly tilted
- Cropped to the exact required size for your country
Requirements
Baby passport photos follow the same official requirements as adult photos:
- 2×2 inch (51×51mm) for US passports
- Taken within the last 6 months
- Plain white or off-white background
- Full face visible, eyes open
- No hats, headbands obscuring hairline, or dark glasses
No need to bring your baby to the store for pickup. We deliver photos to your nearest Walgreens, CVS, or Walmart — you just go pick them up.
