Does anyone know of a facility in Lapta/Alsancak area where I can obtain passport size photos?

I'll second that!

They are also aware of the UK requirements for a Passport 'photo - size, expression, background, composition (e.g. spectacles, hair etc.) PLUS they often give you a free portrait photo, which in my case was heavily 'photoshopped' so that I didn't resemble an axe murderer

Yuksel is the studio to use. I wasted three visits to others studios in an effort to meet the precise sizing requirements demanded by HMG Government Passport
Office (HMG PO). Easy place to find, some local parking, excellent English spoken and very efficient at a reasonable cost. Check the photo's sizes fit the HMG PO template on their form before you leave the studio.
