Getting Signed Photo's

Quick Question:
When I send my letter do I have to send a photo to be signed?
I don't really have any good photos of the people I'd like autographs from, they would just be printouts on plain paper.
Thanks

I had this same problem too when I started collecting. But then I discovered the Wal-mart photo lab!

They let me print off any kind of photos I want and they only cost .25 each. The quality is superb and well worth the money!
Another option if wal-mart doesn't work, is to include a 9x12 SASE so the celeb can send you one. {thumb2} 9x12 enveloped require TWO .42 cent stamps.

Wal-Mart is a good idea Ryan
Also, you could buy a pack of index cards. They are pretty cheap and you can customize them as well.
If you wanted a photo signed you could try sending DVD covers (although I would be afraid that I would not get them back) or even pictures from Magazines
Also, many celebs have their own photos that they send out. Some examples that I've received are: Dustin Milligan, Judi Dench, Mark Harmon, Freddie Highmore, and Michael Welch. As long as you send an SASE or even SAE then you should be good.
Hope this helped and good luck

Hey there

i think that the most important thing is to send an SASE to the person as they often do have their own photos..or atleast some just print out photos as they get the fanmail...but as many said on here,go to walmart or buy an really good printer as i did and trust me,it has payed of =)

The cheaper and more convenient option is index cards
That's what I do.
Plus, they normally throw in a signed photo too.
You should try it.
