Passport photobooth in brixton/clapham/streatham?

I also made a point to notice the photo booth in WH Smiths on Streatham High Road today, so can confirm it is definitely there
 
Studio 73 in Granville Arcade/Brixton Village also do passport pics, or if you're in Dulwich, you can use the high-tech photo booth that gets all chatty with you (by the big Saindbury's on Champion Hill).

Rapid photo at 7 Brixton Station Rd London SW9 8PA‎ (Tel: 020 7733 7325) are listed too, but I'm not sure if they're still there.

There's also a Snappy Snaps in Camberwell.

Is there still one in Kingshield Pharmacy, 387 Brixton Road, London SW9 7DE?
 
That small mini cab office at 1 Atlantic Rd. has an even smaller passport photo operation within.
Although jewel like in its tinyness their prices are the same as everyone else: £5 for 4. They will do you a good deal if you want 6 or 8.

I think that's the place where I went to get mine down. It's got a big Fujifilm logo on the sign. Just a few doors up from (ouch mental blank), the Italian cafe on the corner and before you get to the Craft Boooze Dispendary.

Very nice people in there.

They also show you the photo before printing it of and they've templates for all passports, ie the Irish one has a much higher spec list than the UK one.
 
Update: there's a rather hi-tech photo machine located outside the big Sainsbury's supermarket right next to Duwich Hamlet's ground.
 
The bloke in ProntoPrint (or whatever they are called nowadays) does them as well.
 
I got my pics done recently in a photobooth in Morrisons, Sutton. I fast tracked my application so went to the passport office. They rejectedmy pictures (too much light) and I had to fork out another £5 to use their booth :mad: nice little earner for them! there was another guy in the queue near me who had their pics were rejected too.

I guess you have more come back (for refund or whatever) if you have a person take the pics rather than a machine.

Too much light ??!!
 
TOO MUCH LIGHT!! I am quite pastey though and in a previous passport i did kind of blend into the background with just an eyes and nose left :D

Its annoying because the booth instructed you to ensure the curtain was well closed as it might make the picture too light. So I did. Insufficient! Oh well.

I'm quite pasty too…. but it never occurred to me that too much light was something I needed to be worried about. More worried about how I get a photo of the bairn :)
 
Right, my passport is due for renewal. Last time, I used the photobooth in Clapham North station, but a cursory look yesterday reveals it is now history.

So, south London photobooths of 2017 vintage please.
 
Post Office on Clapham High Street.
My own recommendation - Happy Snaps at Butterfly Walk Camberwell Green
6 passport sized photos for £4.99 - although if they are actual passport photos they charge £6.99.

The photographers shop in Brixton Station Road twixt the beehive and the Craft Beer is more expensive (£8.99?) but they do give the genuine Brixton experience.
 
There's a photo-booth machine inside elephant & castle shopping centre, right by the entrance to the train station, if you prefer the impersonal touch.

I'm just about to do the same. I see that you can now take and upload your own photo online (provided it meets the requirements).
 
Supermarkets are the best place ime. All the local ones that a medium size upwards have them near me in SW london. Modern photobooths are pretty good as well in the way they give you a code which you use when applying for a new passport, no need to actually upload photos. You also get printed photos as well.
 
It costs a tenner less to do it yourself online.

Plus you're not paying the six quid photo booth charge.
 
It is one of the few advantages of being ancient, you can use the same photos for two passports. :D (It warms the parsimonious cockles... )
 
many timpsons branches will do passport photos - got some done there a few weeks ago.

means you get a chance to see it before committing, and they run it through some sort of digital checking thingy that says it's ok (or not) for passports before they print it out.

think it was about ten quid, with 4 printed photos and a digital code that you can link to on an online passport application.
 
Not too close I know, but the mega Sainsbury's next to Dulwich Hamlet C definitely has a photo booth.
 
I can’t print photos here- I have digital passport photos but I need printed ones for the embassy
There's a place on Coldharbour Lane that does passport photos. I got some for my Russian visa a couple of years ago. I forget the name of the place. It's not Snappy Snaps or anything. It's an independent place.
