Where the photo is taken
You apply for a Nebraska learner's permit (LPE or LPD) at the DMV with your documents; vision and written tests are required. Nebraska DMV says to be prepared to take a new photo every time you visit a DMV office; its permit pages do not say separately whether the permit shows a photo.
Online steps and photo upload
The first permit is not available online; online applications are offered only when graduating to the next permit (School Permit or Provisional Operator's Permit). No page reviewed mentions uploading a photo.
