Happy Red Nose Day – my teens wanted new photos taken for their driving licenses (scary stuff) – so the perfect opportunity to practice some simple portraits that fit the requirements of the DVLA… and alongside it to have some fun…
These are the fun shots
- Nifty 50 – F8
- Flash bounced on the ceiling
- Reflector under the chin
- Remote release… so we could take our own pictures
- Put together in Photoshop.

For a sensible passport/driving license picture there is a great template which you can download from NicMyers which gives you the guidelines for positioning the photograph correctly and is really helpful.
