An independent business where you can get your passport photos done very quickly.

I took photos here for a passport and for a UK visa.

The quality of the photos seemed better than at Kinko's or at Wolf Camera, which is where I have gotten them in the past. And the price seemed cheaper than at those places.

The photographer guy isn't very talkative, but he is fast and he seems to know a lot about INS / USCIS photo requirements.

I've been looking high and low for immigration photos (i.e not passport photos).  For Canadian immigration, the photos have a much different size and they are not able to be taken at Costco or other places offering passport photos.

I found very few places on the internet but all of them were no longer in business, except two.  I opted for this studio since it kept typical business hours.  I called ahead just to make sure he was open.

The business owner is a man of few words.  I brought the photo specifications with me and he glanced at them but didn't want them.  Apparently, he's very familiar with the standards for different countries.  Pasted on the counter were guidelines for EU, India, etc.  He led me to the studio and snapped a couple shots.

I waited 5 minutes for the results.  $18 for 4 photos which seemed reasonable for this sort of thing.   I'd go back again.

We got our photos taken for the EAD application. The photographer knew the specific requirements and we just had to mention 'EAD photos'. It cost us about $30 for 8 passport size photos. He is quite laconic and gets to his job immediately without taking a second. There was some trouble getting a good picture for me as I wear glasses. INS is usually strict about reflections not appearing on glasses and he had empty frames handy

There was a steady trickle of customers and everyone seems to come in for EAD/INS photos.
