I have had to take photos of each of my two kids at six months old for passports. That was not a lot of fun (though it's nice to look at the baby photo for the older one now).
- iso1631 23d agoI had professional photographers (guy at timpsons) do it with when my kids were that age. Was a doddle and cost about £5 The hilarity of having to compare a baby picture with a 5 year old kid stood in front of you is a separate problem.
- disgruntledphd2 23d agoYeah, our first was during Covid so we had to do it, and then I just did child number two. > The hilarity of having to compare a baby picture with a 5 year old kid stood in front of you is a separate problem. Yeah, it's pretty ridiculous, I'd imagine that most border guards will just check the last name and assume it's OK in that case.

- vunderba 22d agoMost governments have strict rules around “photoshopping” or doctoring images, particularly for passports and other identification documents. I'm pretty sure Gemini embeds invisible SynthID watermarks into Nano-Banana images. So just be advised that this could get you into hot water.
- benhurmarcel 22d agoThere is no requirement about that here. Anyway I only provide a printed copy, which the employee visually compares to the person.
