flare Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Second floor Big C Hang Dong has a large photo counter at the entrance on the left that can provide exactly what you need. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmsally Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 If you are in town then Fuji photo place opposite Chiang Mai Plaza Hotel (Sridonchai Rd), just east from Pantip Plaza. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sfokevin Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 One thing to watch out for is the background color... review the regulation if any for a French passport.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post FolkGuitar Posted August 29, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted August 29, 2017 (edited) Also check 'shoulder size...' We had to redo our photo three times because there wasn't enough shoulder showing in the photos to satisfy the India visa requirements. I guess they use the new 'shoulder recognition software' that is so popular these days. Edited August 29, 2017 by FolkGuitar 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo Posted August 29, 2017 Share Posted August 29, 2017 I'd recommend the shop in MaeJo, just North of the first footbridge on the main drag, roughly opposite the main-entrance to MaeJo-University. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pomegranate Posted August 29, 2017 Author Share Posted August 29, 2017 Thank you for all these answers. Indeed, there are requirements which I could read on the website of French Embassy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uhhh ohhh Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Heading out of town just across Narowat Bridge on the left is a Kodak shop. They do a good job! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nearer to town on the same road ,at Meechok Plaza. .Next to Rimping inside the covered walkway is a large photo shop .They mainly do Passport photos and they know the regulation requirements for each Country .Cheap also . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. I will go and see them. Today, I went in 4 different shops (said above), the result is quite pitiful, although I show them, and insisted on each requirement (they can't properly take a pic with a grey light background, neither master the lights (either shadow, either they make the eyes shining on the pic). I can't be sure that it would be accepted by the French Embassy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FolkGuitar Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Pomegranate, there is one more shop to try... When we went for our photos, we were required to have a light, neutral background. Unfortunately, I was wearing a white T-shirt at the time, so even with the correct crop, you couldn't see my shoulders! They blended in with the background. So the photographer simply adjusted the 'white point' level in Photoshop, turning the background slightly gray so that my shoulders could be seen, as required by the consulate for my visa. I'm sure he could do the same for you. This shop is a Kodak shop directly across from the 'Dara Academy' school just past the McCormick Hospital on Kaew Nawarat Rd in Chiang Mai. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday, in the last shop I went to, I asked for 3 changes, but the quality was still not good. Thank you for this address.

This morning, I went to this shop. Thank you for this address. There, I could get good enough pics (good background, well sized, well cropped, well cut). I will go there one time more, as I think that the pics are a little too overexposed (too much light). Then it will be perfect. The price : 100 bahts Location on the map : https://goo.gl/maps/NfqyZAXgWME2 Edited September 1, 2017 by pomegranate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkol Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 I agree, the shop inside Meechok Plaza is highly recommendable for getting passport pictures. Fast, friendly and knowledgeable. You just name the country ,they will know the requirements for the pictures. 12 pictures in good quality are 100 Baht. After picture taking one has to wait for about 20 minutes (mine were finished after 10 minutes). It is the first shop on the right side of the western entrance to the covered RimPing area.
