Where can I print a Russian passport photo?
Take the print sheet to any фотосалон or photo printing kiosk. A standard 10×15 cm print gives you multiple correctly sized 35×45 mm photos.
What is the difference between a Russian загранпаспорт and an internal passport?
The загранпаспорт is the international (biometric) travel passport and requires a 35×45 mm photo. The internal passport (паспорт гражданина РФ) requires a different size — 35×45 mm as well, but check the exact current specification at the MFC for internal passport applications.
