How it Works

The MyPhoto Process

In just a few simple steps, a user can authenticate, upload, rotate/crop, preview and submit their photo.


Step 1 – Take your photo
Using your favorite device that has a camera, take your photo.  Review the requirements provided if needed.


Step 2 – Login to the MyPhoto site
MyPhoto is a web application that is customized to your institution.  The theme, colors, logo and integration with your current method of authentication (LDAP, Shibboleth, CAS, ADFS) are key components. MyPhoto is also responsive.  This means that you can login with any device and it will display properly.  So go ahead and use your smartphone, Iphone, Ipad or other device and login to the site!


Step 3 – Upload your photo!
Select a photo from your gallery, hard drive or even take a selfie now.


Step 4 – Preview your photo
We provide a preview of exactly what your photo will look like on a university ID that has been provided.  A sample card will also be shown so that you may compare it so that it meets the requirements of your institution.


Step 5 – Submit your photo!
Step 5 is simply clicking on the submit button.  Before you know it, an email is in your inbox confirming your submission.  Shortly an approval or disapproval email will follow with further instructions or details.  You are all set!

MyPhoto has a powerful administration tool which allows multiple users to quickly bulk approve or disapprove a large numbers of photo submissions.  Once approved, the photo is dynamically formatted to meet your card software requirements and imported to your card system for immediate production.
