Going abroad on vacation is stressful enough as it is, without the added hassle of remembering to pack all the essential little bits and pieces. It’s even worse when you have to remember all the important things for the family as well, like, well maybe getting passports renewed or organized? The amount of trouble it can be even getting the photos done is enough to put you off travelling for good.

Thankfully the good people at Camtoprint have got your back with their freeware passport photo creator software. The program is actually a full commercial image editor and print product, but the passport photo part of it remains free. This means you can download the program, take a quick shot of you and the dog (preferably separately) and tweak it till you get a perfect sized and composition for your local friendly passport office clerk.

You can do it all on most standard inkjet or colour laser printers, and of course it’s also useful for driving licences or I.D. cards if that’s your requirement. The software copes with the U.S., U.K. and any other region that uses the standard sized photo formats for their official documents. Say cheese! (or not).
