Colleen, regarding your question about the photograph, you may need to use a photo-editing program (most phones come with an app - I myself use "Photo Editor," which has enough options on the free program that I don't need to upgrade to the "Pro" version. You should be able to literally "erase" yourself from the photo, which you can then attach to this appraisal.
I hope that helps!
