If you mean a place where people go to have their portraits made, they are called "photography studios" or "portrait studios".

Photo shops where you used to get your standard camera film developed and photos re/printed are a victim of progress and just about extinct.  We just used to call them the Kodak shop or Rabbit Photos, or whatever the name was.
 
Agree with Bruce regarding photography studios for formal photos such as weddings and other special celebrations.
 
Cheers

The category in the phone book is: Photographic Processing Services
 
The shops call themselves Photo Centre, Photographic Centre, Digital Photo Centre. There is no one particular name.
 
The term Photo Centre is often used if the printing service is part of a bigger store. e.g. in a department store.
 
Online Photo Printing is the service offered via the Internet.
 
Camera Shops often have a photo printing service.

What I meant is the shops where you get an id/passport/visa photo. For example; the photographer asks you what background color the embassy you are applying for wants, if they have other specific requirements ...  They still called photo processing service?? not something "shop"???
