How are you guys sending your own photos?

Unread post by Jordyn »

Are you cutting them out from magazines, taking a photo of the photo, or printing them out on the computer?

Thanks,
Jordyn.

I don't send my own phots, but mostly people just get them from the internet (i.e Google images). I'm sure there are more ways too.

I've got a pretty good printer and photo paper, so I print out any photos I want to send. Although I usually let the person I'm writing to decide what they sign. You can get good quality photo printing paper pretty cheaply, you don't always need the really expensive stuff to get good results.

I print out my own 8x10's. I am an aspiring photographer and I have a semi-professional photo printer at home, so the quality is excellent, better then say Wal mart actually. I like to send my own pictures just in case the celebrities I am writing to don't have any pictures to send back.

I order photos printed online. I find the images (either official sites or google images) and order the prints. I get 6x4s and get them at http://www.asda-photo.co.uk/, usually when they are having a half price deal. I can get 30 or so prints that way for about £3.50 including delivery.

I either design and make my own, or find them on the internet and take them to my local Wal-Mart and have them printed off!! {thumb2}

This is how I found photos:

Well, most celebs have fansites made from fans.
If you go under Gallery or Photos, you will be redirected to a photo gallery. I find the photo(s) I want to get signed preferably one that says: Click on Image to Enlarge.
Copy and paste to word, then I print using a Good Quality Printer hooked up to my computer on photo paper. All done!

Once I have sent a Magazine photo.

Good luck!

Hi!

I don't send photos 'cause in Hungary I couldn't get any.I send out my cd or dvd covers or just ask for a signed picture from the celebrity I write to.
