Photography:
- Submit photos at the same time you send your announcement (separated photos can be difficult to identify and match with announcements).
- Photos should be in focus and have good contrast.
- All digital pictures must be a JPEG formatted image and be at least 900 pixels wide by 600 pixels tall. Generally, we recommend that you use a photo that was taken by at least a 2-megapixel camera.
- All photos are subject to review and will be published according to our discretion.
- Note that, due to low resolutions, photos must not be copied from a website.
- For professional photographs, we require written permission from the photographer in order to print in Inspire.
- If you would like your photo returned, please include a self-addressed, stamped envelope. Your picture will be returned after the issue has been printed and mailed.
