Tips for taking a photo
Tips for Taking a Photo for ID Cards Here are a few simple tips to help you get the best results when taking photos for ID cards. A clear, well-lit photo will improve print quality and ensure a professional result. Aim for a file size of around 100-200kb. A head and shoulders photo works best, with the face taking up most of the frame.
Keep the background consistent across all photos for a clean and professional look. Avoid yellow tones caused by indoor lighting. Using a flash from around 2 metres away can help remove colour cast without overexposing the face. Make sure lighting is even across the face, with no strong shadows.
For more guidance, see the example below on taking a passport-style photo. While official passport rules are stricter, the same principles apply for ID cards.
