Natural light is best, but avoid direct sunlight which creates harsh shadows.
Composition & framing
Upper torso and shoulders should be visible within a rectangular frame. Avoid close-up zooming of the face or cropping the photo to a shape.
Backgrounds
Choose a simple, uncluttered, neutral or blurred background. Avoid bright, patterned or busy backgrounds.
File type & size
Provide a file with a high resolution (minimum 200K, not to exceed 1MB). Providing a low resolution file will render a pixelated and blurry image. Accepted file types: .JPG, .JPEG, .PNG
