Overseas Pakistanis can apply for a NICOP online in the Pak-ID app or website (NADRA Pak-ID), or in person at the NADRA counters in the Pakistan High Commission in London and the consulates in Birmingham, Manchester and Bradford, where the photo is taken for you (Pakistan High Commission London: NICOP).
For an online application, upload the photo the Pak-ID app asks for and follow its on-screen guide. Sources disagree on the background colour (white or blue), so use the colour the app shows you.
