My First Passport

Our trip to France for the Holidays coming soon, we had to apply for Théo's first passport. Which implied that we were in the need of two passport photos for him to submit with the application. Since we have everything on hand at home, camera+computer+photoshop+printer (just like the majority of people), no need to go to a photographer.
Here is how we did the trick in few steps:
1. We put Théo on our bed with a white fitted sheet and of course took a few shoots of him until we were happy with one of them. Actually this time we were lucky enough that we indeed were please after only four pictures have been taken! And by the way, the use of flash was necessary for a better render and a sharper image.
2. In photoshop, I cropped the photo so the proportions will be as required for a passport photo ; meaning 2x2 inches, with the length of the head (from top to chin) between 1in and 13/8in.
3. Then, we thought it would be even better if we got rid of the few wrinkles from the sheet so it would look a little more professional. So I used the pen tool to trace and select the background and keep Théo out of ma selection. Finally, I used "blur surface" under the blur filters. (here I used a radius of 69 and a threshold of 19)4. Now our picture is done. Just print (2x2) and submit with the application!
