Can hats or religious headgear be worn for the photo?

Unless worn daily for religious reasons, all hats or headgear should be removed for the photo. In all cases, no item or attire should cover or otherwise obscure any part of the face.



Can work uniforms be worn for the photo?

Uniforms should not be worn in photographs except in the case of religious attire that is worn daily. Otherwise, normal street attire should be worn.

It's kind of amazing sometime how there's always an exception to the rule.

Honi, but it's true.... I wear a scarf every day that covers my hair..... One time I took it off in front of a friend of mine, and she didn't recognize me suddenly with long hair... I think it has to do with the fact that your picture should look like you.... If they want to know what I look like on a daily basis, and not what I look like only in the privacy of my own home, I have to have the scarf on in my picture.....

Okay Leppi, I was thinking more about some of the women I see here where their headgear covers their head and a lot of their face. Anybody could be lurking under that cover. This has no reflection on you at all.
