This looks like what my experience taking a passport photo with a 8 month old mini human felt like.

Oh boy do I know the feeling. We live overseas and both our kids were born here. So basically the first thing we had to do was get them their passports. Trying to get a 2-4 week old baby to open their eyes and look somewhat at the camera was... an experience.

Tip: Swaddle the baby, lie it on top of a plain light piece of fabric (we used one of my work shirts) and click the camera 100 times.

Having said that though, I'm starting to think an 8 month old would be even harder based on the fact that they move :D
