I am really worried by reading the various issues on Photo requirements while applying to US embassy.Nabil Bank is directly interrupting the policy stated by US embassy.According to embassy,the photo requirements for visa applicants is:

• Photographs must show the subject’s full face, from the crown of the head to the tip of the chin, and from ear to ear. The applicant cannot be looking down or to the side.

• The photo must have been taken in the last six months.

• The size of the photo should be 2” x 2” square.  The face should cover approximately 50% of the photo area.

• Photos should be in color and must be taken against a white or off-white background.  Photos taken in front of busy, patterned or dark backgrounds will not be accepted.  Photos should be printed without borders.

• Applicants should not be wearing hats, except when required by specific religious beliefs.  Photos of military or airline personnel wearing hats as part of their uniform will not be accepted.  Hats worn for religious purposes may not obscure any portion of the face of the applicant.

• Photos of applicants for A or G visas wearing head coverings as part of a national costume may be accepted at the discretion of the consular officer, provided the face is clearly visible.

If an applicant fulfills all these requirements then why should he/she take a photo from what called "Orchid studio".By the way,US embassy should also speak for this because their own right to maintain own policy is being disturbed.
