Choosing photo of celeb

[house_fan26]

When you send to a celebrity, do you send a picture of the celeb as himself/herself or a character s/he played?
Do you have any preferences?

Hey house_fan26!

Cool question! Well, I only send my own photos via venue and so far I've gotten back two of my own pics which I sent: from Paul Bettany and Marion Cotillard. {thumb2} To Paul, I sent a photo of him at "The Da Vinci Code" photo call (thus, not of him as Silas) so it would be a photo of just himself, not the character. And to Marion I sent a pic of the poster of "La Vie En Rose", so that would be as the character she played - Edith Piaf. Normally, I prefer a nice looking photoshoot of just the actor themself. Sometimes I do search for pics of them as their characters but I usually find myself struggling to decide which film/character to pick, as I like too many! So, it varies with me - it depends on how good the photo would look signed, I guess. {thumb2}

Thanks,
zanne

Do you generally pick pictures with light backgrounds?
What about candid pictures like at a premiere or them accepting an award?
