Hi
Could anyone tell me where to get a picture of a baby for a passport? I was told at the post office to go to a photographer in Wick but I forgot the name :/
Thank you

I'm sure the photographer on shore lane does them. No idea about the one in Back Bridge street though

Both the photographers in Wick take baby passport photographs. McDonalds in Shore Lane and The other McDonald Back Bridge Street. I would recommend having a baby's photograph taken at the photographers as they can be tricky to get a good photograph that will be accepted.

Thanks a lot for the info, baby is actually only 2 months old so can't really take him to a photo booth.

I had forgotten the British rule about not smiling in your passport photo. When I got mine done for my Green Card here in the US the lady at the photo shop asked me if I was depressed! Big cheesy grins are out but a normal smile is fine.

So maybe you should have been sure about your facts before you posted........

If you're meaning Macdonalds in Shore Lane, Wick, I'm glad. Thanks.

Yes you did, but that doesn't alter the fact that you'd declared a local business closed, when they were not. Goodness knows each and every local business need all the luck they can get nowadays.

Aside from all that, in reply to the OP, Manuela, there are two photographers in Wick who can meet you requirements. Macdonalds in Shore Lane & Macdonald in Back Bridge Street, both Wick. Good luck.

No. Half of them look like Churchill and the other half (ironically) look like Ghandi.
