Hello there,
Sorry if this question has been discussed already. I looked around but I might have missed it.
Anyway, I was wondering if we have to include a picture ourselves or if they have one they send back to you?
If we do need to send our own, what works best?
I have also been hearing the term 'SASE' a lot.
What does that mean?
Thanks, & once again, sorry if these have been asked already.

most celebs will have a pic they can sen unless your sending via venue
SASE means self addressed stamped envelope

I always send my own pictures with my requests! I recommend doing the same!

I would look at past feedback and see if the celebrities you plan on writing to send out their own photo's. If you like their photo's then don't bother sending your own.
Good luck!

Do you just print your photos from the internet or do you get them from magazines, etc...?

I always include photos with my requests. You can also send index cards too. Most celebs send their own 8x10's so if you don't send a photo, include a 9x12 SASE so they can reply.

I upload photo's I find on the internet to Walgreen's online photo center. They print them off for me and I pick them up when they're ready.

Thanks! Always enjoy hearing feedback on my collection. Has taken me many hours worth of research to make it that way.

And I've had lots of fun doing it and getting to know literally hundreds of people along the way.

Best of luck with your collection!

I think it pays to do your research. Katy Perry, for example, sends her own photo pre-signed (not pp) so any photo you send her will most likely simply be a waste of money. On the other hand, Christian Bale, I think, does not provide his won photo and you have to send him something.
