Take photograph

Hi.

How should we ask for someone to be in a photograph with us?

I mean when we see someone famous and we want to stand beside them so someone can take our photograph.

For example.

I see Brad pit, and I say Can I have the honor of being in a photograph with you?

is it right?

can you think of a better one.

Thanks

What you said is fine, though it's more formal than an American is used to hearing. The way you phrased it would probably make Brad smile with self-deprecation, as it makes it sound like he has to acknowledge himself as something worth being honored for merely standing in a picture. "
