Getting Photos to send

Hi all
I was just wondering about getting photos to send a celebrity. I found several Google images that I wanted to send, but I wanted it printed (but not on regular paper). Can I save it onto a USB then get it printed into 4x6/8x10 copies at a photo store? When I went there, there was a warning that said you should only print photos that you actually took, and I wanted to know if this was the right way to print photos.
Thanks so much in advance!

Yeah it is but some places have a copyright issue and might not let you print out celebrity photos. i would try anyway though, good luck

I went to a Ritz Camera store and got the pictures printed from one of those booths that print the pictures really fast and that's where I saw the message.
If the celebrity cannot sign the picture because it's not "approved", do they usually send one of their own?

I sent my letter via venue, so I wanted to send him pictures to sign--I heard that the celebrities usually don't bring their own pictures for via venue fanmail. Does this mean I won't get anything back?

I think it just depends on the celeb. I've wrote to a few via venue and I always include my own photo, the majority of them I have got back signed, in fact, the only person who has not signed my own photo via venue was Kylie Minogue, she returned my photo and included her own one
I think it's a safer bet to include your own photo
