It took so many attempts to get my WWCC photo approved that I ended up looking really really dodgy in it. I had to end up looking down at my phone then editing the background with a passport photo app to make it work.
It’s the whole “not allowed to smile” thing. I had my photos taken at the local post office newsagency and the woman kept saying, “you’re not allowed to smile.” I’d be like, “but I’m not smiling!” She said “yes you are, you’re not allowed to or they won’t accept the photo” and I’d say "but I’m not!" We actually both ended up laughing at me for a solid few minutes there. I didn’t think I was, but I was. I just couldn’t glare into the camera like an angry serial killer lol.
What is it about passport/visa photos that make you look like a serial killer?

My current one is awful; I look so grumpy. It’s stressful being photographed at the best of times, let alone in a post office under the fluros
Fluorescent lighting is toxic and abusive and should be outlawed.
