2 inch ID photo size

A 2-inch ID photo is a square photo with a width of 2 inches (5.08 cm) and a height of 2 inches (5.08 cm).

This is a common photo size of certificate, which is widely used in various certificates and documents, such as ID card, passport, student ID card, driver's license and so on. The size requirement of a 2-inch ID photo usually specifies the size and proportion of the face. The face accounts for about 2/3 to 3/4 of the whole photo, and the height from forehead to chin accounts for about 3/5 of the photo height.

Such a ratio can provide clear and visible facial features and meet the formal requirements of ID photos. In order to meet the size requirements, the background in a photo should usually be solid or light, with no texture or pattern. At the same time, the photos should be taken from the front, and the facial expressions should be clearly visible and unobstructed.

It is usually recommended to take 2-inch photos in a professional photo agency or an experienced photographer to ensure the quality of the photos and meet the requirements.

Matters needing attention in taking ID card photos:

1. Background selection: Choose a solid or light background, such as white or light gray, to ensure that the face in the photo is clearly visible and the background is not disturbed.

2. Sufficient light: Ensure sufficient light in the shooting environment and avoid shadows or darkness. You can consider using soft natural light or indoor lighting to avoid glare.

3, facial expressions: keep facial expressions naturally relaxed, don't have too many expressions. Look straight into the camera, don't blink, open your mouth slightly, smile or other exaggerated expressions.

4. Don't cover your face: Don't wear glasses (unless you have to wear glasses), and don't wear hats, masks or other obstructions to ensure that your face is clearly visible.

5. Dress appropriately: dress neatly and appropriately, and avoid too fancy or large-area texture patterns, so as not to affect the clarity of photos.

6. Specified size: According to the requirements of different certificates, the photos taken should conform to the specified size and proportion. If you are not sure about the requirements, you can consult relevant institutions or photographers.

7. Seek professional help: If possible, you can choose to seek the help of a professional photo agency or an experienced photographer to ensure that the photos meet the required quality.
