	Look straight into the camera
	The entire head, hair and face must be unobstructed and visible
	Take the (vertical) photo close-up
	This should preferably be taken outside when it is cloudy. This will result in a lovely, smooth exposure!
	The hair shouldn’t fall over the back of the shoulders. Have the hair falling over the front of the shoulders or even better, tie long hair up in a ponytail.
	Do not send photos depicting several people.

This is how you create a good Bookadoo® photo...

A good photo is essential in making a great Bookadoo. We insert the photo into all the spectacular scenes, and therefore we cannot use blurred or over-exposed shots in shadow. A hand in front of the mouth cannot be used if your child has to sing for example. If the photo is unsuitable, unfortunately we cannot make the Bookadoo, so please read the Photo rules carefully!

This is not how it should be done!

Below you can see how it should not be done. No bright sunlight, no hair over the back of the shoulders, no black-and-white photos, no side shots or shots with several people. With these sorts of photos it is difficult to ‘separate’ the head required for optimum results. Red eyes are not a problem; we can fix this. Have you selected an unsuitable photo for a Bookadoo? If so we will contact you to advise you further.
