Where to take good passport photos?

Nowadays, those booths in shopping centers and photo development shops do take passport photos. But they aren't photographers. And they insist on people taking off their spectacles. And the pictures are terrible.

Β 

I recall during theΒ  80s and 90s, there were proper photo studios like a husband and wife operation. You can keep your glasses on as they know how to adjust the lighting so your spectacles won't be reflective. They also take more flattering photos. Wondering where to find them?

Now everyone rushing to make passports as Malaysia truly asia reopens legs. ICA say they are overwhelmed and may take a month to process passport applications.

have 2 friends who applied, and their pics rejected because: facial expression should be neutral with mouth closed

Β 

though both friends claimed they did not show teeth, one had a very slight smile only

After online submission, mine got rejected because the glassesΒ  got reflection . Collection only available one month after approval. Guess there's a massive surge in applications.

Β 

I also have to collect at ICA not post office. They said have to scan my iris. We are really moving to that futuristic period where people use eye scan as a security fearure.

Your friends must have photoshopped their pics 🀣

I just renewed my passport.Β  I dressed up, set up my mobile on a tripod to take a selfie pic with a white background.Β  Then sharpened the image, cropped it and submitted.Β  It got accepted.

If you are looking for some really nice, professionally taken shots, I like Makeover Inc in Concord hotel.Β  Costs a little more.Β  But worth the finished product.Β
