:@[[User:CosmicNotes|CosmicNotes]] You can ask. Note that ''the copyrightholder'', usually the photographer, should upload it ''themselves'': '''[https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:UploadWizard here]'''. Also that you can't guarantee the pic will actually be used, but if it's the "best"/only one available it probably will be. Preferably the pic should be (uptil now) unpublished elsewhere, that can make things easier. I'd make it clear that you're asking as an independent netizen, not as some sort of "official WP-rep."

::::Thanks, {{u|Gråbergs Gråa Sång}}, that makes sense. Could you clarify which person holds the copyright? The person taking the photo or the subject in the photo? Assuming the person the has the copyright would be the one that needs to upload it. And is it permissible for me to then put the photo on the page once it is accepted as an approved image? Just trying ensure I follow proper procedures, as to date I have not done anything with photos, just text edits.
