Canada Passport Photo
Where can I get a photo taken for a Canadian passport? They have different requirements than US passports so need a place that really knows how to do them. Thanks!

I had to take photos for a Japanese student visa and the requirements were also very fussy. What I found was a photo app so that I could take them with my phone. It had lots and lots of different specific options for different passports, visas, licenses etc from a wide variety of countries and was extremely easy to use.
I needed photos for a Japanese student visa and found an app for my phone that was specifically for the purpose of taking passport, visa, license photos. It had preset options for lots of different countries and documents and was quite easy to use. Then I took my phone to Walgreens and got the photos printed out. No problem!
Montclair 1-Hour Photo will do it. They're very familiar with the requirements for Canada.
Montclair photo has been good for us for non-US passport pictures, they have the chart with specs for each country and are thoughtful in implementing them correctly.
I used an online service for photos for a Chinese visa, using a digital photo we took at home against a plain white wall. I think it was this site, https://visafoto.com/, but any service that is set up to meet the varying requirements of visa photos should fit the bill.
I believe Express Photo on E18th in Oakland does international passports.
