As well as having birthing plans and baby supplies on your mind, you might also find that you\u2019ve got to submit your passport application \u2013 and, as a result, take a picture to go with it. Thankfully there are a few handy tricks which should help you to take a decent passport photo as quickly and effortlessly as possible, which you\u2019ll no doubt agree is highly desirable in your pregnant state. Here are three you can try out:<\/p>\n<p>Embrace your glow<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not uncommon for girls (and guys) to rush to the make-up counter before taking their passport photo. After all, everyone wants to sport a flawless, blemish-free complexion on such an important picture. However, you don\u2019t need any foundation or blusher to achieve this when you\u2019re with child. Instead, you should embrace your pregnant glow. The fact that this means you can steer clear of make-up should save you some time that could be spent on other baby-related tasks.<\/p>\n<p>Stay sat down<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s always a temptation to rise to your feet for your passport photo. However, this isn\u2019t demanded in the official guidelines. Instead, the rules simply state that you should flash your picture \u2018against a plain cream or light grey background\u2019. Therefore, you should be sure to give your feet a much-needed rest by taking the photo from the comfort of a seat.<\/p>\n<p>Submit it quickly<\/p>\n<p>While life can get in the way of your passport application (namely the possibility of giving birth and becoming a mother) you shouldn\u2019t leave it too long to submit the picture you\u2019ve taken. The guidelines state that all images must be \u2018taken within the last month\u2019, so make sure you\u2019re speedy with sending it off or you could find that you need to take another at some point in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Good luck!<\/p>\n<p>A fully completed passport application will be just one less thing that you\u2019ll have to worry about when you\u2019re pregnant.
