Anyone had any luck with visa photos taken yourself (like with a phone camera or a usual camera), not in a photo studio? I'm applying online and have read it's possible to use a DIY photo. Any tips or warnings?

Hell ClairNotHolt,

Welcome to Expat.com 😀

That is a very interesting question you have asked.

I really hope someone who has done this before will be able to share their insights with you and other members, because I am sure you are not the only one looking for tips on this specific topic.

Cheers,

Hi and welcome to the Forum.

The UK Government website has a very useful guide for passport photos; this link will take you straight to it.

I hope this helps.
