Become familiar with the nuances of the Passport Form DS3053

IMG 6541

A Statement of Consent for Issuing a Passport to a Child is required when a minor under 16 is applying for a U.S. passport and only one parent or legal representative can appear in person at the time of application. When one of the parents or legal guardians cannot be present to sign for a child’s passport application, Form DS-3053 may be used to show that permission to issue a passport has been granted by that individual. The DS-3053 (https://onenotary.us/ds-3053-form-passport-parental-consent/) was created to aid in the prevention of kidnappings that occur outside of the United States. Passport applications for minors under the age of 16 in the United States need the approval of both parents or guardians in law unless there is proof of sole custody or exceptional circumstances, such as a court order approving the child’s travel.

Yet there’s a reason professionals use expensive gear – they are better for the job.  However that doesn’t mean you need to go out and spend $10k on a set-up! Definitely not. Many of my clients express an interest in going beyond the cellphone for travel photos, but don’t want to be a professional, so here are a few suggestions for you.  Note:  Take cameras with you as carry on and remove the batteries as well.  I made the mistake in the past checking my gear in and they removed my batteries. I ended up paying a fortune to replace the batteries – ugh.
