Preschool wants four passport-size photos for her ID card and file before the term starts. We tried at home against a wall. She either closes her eyes or puts her face right up to the phone. Any studio nearby that's patient with small kids? Happy to pay a bit extra if they don't rush us.
We needed one for our son's papers last month and he's 3 months, so we just laid him on a white bedsheet and took it from above. The print shop near Kondapur cropped it for us. Won't work for someone who can run away, I know.
Before you go to a studio, ask the preschool if they'll accept a printed phone photo. At the school where I teach, the office only cares that the face is clear and the background plain. Most of our younger children's photos are clearly taken on a balcony.
Which one did you end up going to? Daycare has asked us for the same, four copies, and my son won't sit for more than two seconds either.
Small studio on the road towards Lingampally station, can't remember the name, it's above a mobile shop. She sat on my lap on a stool and the guy blew soap bubbles behind the camera. Done in five minutes. Take your own bubbles in case.
Keep going
