Why UK passport photos need their own preset
A UK passport photo is not the same as a U.S. square photo. The frame is vertical, the head proportions are different, and the alignment needs to be judged inside the correct aspect ratio from the start.
That is what this page solves: it keeps the editor anchored to the UK-style format so the user is working inside the actual destination shape instead of a generic crop box.
How this helps before upload or print
The most practical flow is simple: upload a portrait, align the face to the guide area, tidy a bright background if needed, and export a UK-style document photo that is ready for the next step.
