Hi was just wondering if someone could help, does anyone know of a photo booth in cork that does passport photos?

alot of them have gone from where they were and a friend of mine is looking for one, don't want to get them done by person or in a pharmacy for personal reasons....

Hi just read your post and thought I'd prepare you - they are now so strict with the photos for passports - new rules/regulations re. how much of head/neck in picture, no smiling etc. a mug shot indeed! Those machines used to be quite fun and acceptable for passport photos but don't waste your money. When I was at the Passport office there were loads of people sent off to get new photos taken. I went to Barry's on Pembroke Street last year (across from the GPO) it was all done very quickly. And I now recommend there for everyone else.

Most Pharmacies do passport photos I believe.

The Passport offfice and the airport both have photo booths.

I had to renew my passport a couple pf years ago, and this was exactly my experience, don't bother with the photo booths.:pac:

listen to Judes, go to a place where a person who is aware of the strict rules regarding acceptable passport photos or else you will end up wasting time and money....blame the yanks:)

i got my photos taken in a pharmacy in city centre oliver plunky st i think and i was wearing a slash neck/crew neck sweater....
She managed to obliterate the sweater and i got four photos of what looks like a NAKED me.......... NOT good........ they were only for my driving licence.... I was too embarrassed to go back and complain.... but i'll check pics more thoroughly in future.
