Why Professional Baby Photos Matter for ID Cards and Passports

Official documents require a biometric passport photo – even for your baby. Having a professional photo taken in a studio reduces the risk of rejection, saves time and makes the experience stress-free. At Jaweed Studio in Ghent, we take your baby’s passport photo quickly, safely and in line with ID card and passport requirements.
