Yes, there are amny celebrities that have there own photo's to send with request, but there are also many celebrities that require a photo, or they won't reply. Sending your own photo definetly increases your chances of a reply. {up}

Khackdrums :D

I send pictures. I make my own cards for soap operas, so I always send those. I also send actors photos of them as a character that they played. I didn't always send photos when I first started collecting and got responses and I've sent photos to celebs only for them to keep my picture and send their own. It really depends on the celeb. You could try checking feedback on here as well. For example, Christian Bale won't sign unless you send him a photo. Hope that helps some!

I send photos mainly because I love the photo that the celeb is in. I prefer pics from photoshoots or at red carpet events.

[quote="ivbaseball06"]I've noticed that most people on these forums send pictures to the celebrities. I've never sent pictures, mostly because I don't have them and don't feel like buying/spending the money to print them. The postage itself is expensive enough! lol...
ANYWAY, are there celebrities that will only respond if you send a picture? Or do most that sign have autographs themselves and will sign those if you don't send them a picture.

Basically, is sending pictures for personal satisfaction of having your pictures signed, or for a better success ratio. Let me know!

P.S. I sent letters to Elton John, Stephen Colbert, and Bob Barker 3 months ago. Still nothing, any advice?[/quote]

I always send pictures to celebs when asking for an autograph request. The thing is some celebs will ask you to send something for them to sign.Others will supply a pictures,some of them will supply a pic but the autograph might be either a PP or autopen. If you don't want to send a picture send an index card :) The reason I send pictures is because it's usually taken from a movie scene wich I like and the way the celeb is posing at that scene is perfect :)

I wrote to Bob Barker about a month ago and I got his autograph 2 days ago. You should try again for him. Use this email address: Pir@tvc.cbs.com

As for the other celebs you have to be patient :) That's the key with this hobby.

Hope this help. If you have more questions do not hesitate to ask :)
