Excellent helpful service for Passport Photos, and so much easier than using a booth. I found the whole passport application process quite daunting, but with the friendly advice from the knowledgeable staff, I had it all done quickly and efficiently. Worth every penny to take the stress out. Great shop too - all sorts if you're into photography!
