Family
Make the photos one after another: yours first, then your spouse's, then each child's. Every photo follows the same rules — 600 × 600, up to 240 KB, taken within six months.
Each photo is its own file; the AI makes them one by one from ordinary phone shots.
Babies
Tips from the State Department photo page — and what the AI does for you.
On his or her back, on a plain white or off-white sheet — the State Department's first tip.
Cover a car seat with a plain white or off-white sheet and photograph the child in it.
No hands, no parent's shoulder: only the child is in the frame.
Wait for a calm moment and shoot from straight above or straight in front.
Shoot a short burst and upload the best one.
White background, the head in the frame, 600 × 600 and up to 240 KB.
Three steps
At home, in daylight, the child looking at you — no studio needed.
White background, head 50–69 % of the frame, 600 × 600, within the 240 KB limit.
The preview is free. Each photo costs €2.99; make them one after another.
