If not, then there are many apps in both the Android and Apple app stores which can take pics for you. Just need to have a white or off-white wall and the app should crop and rotate even to get you an official passport certified photo. |

Before the age of smartphones, people had to go to CVS/Walgreens. But they didn't have some magic machine to spit out pics. They were just taking pics with consumer level digital cameras and editing on software.
Now there are passport/document pics specific apps that do all that because most smartphones have a camera that is way more than sufficient for the pic and the app does the cropping and all the rest of the jazz.
But if your sentiment is "why take a chance", then why even ask in a forum. You know the "safe" places are CVS/Walgreens.
