If you go to the web site "Find a grave" and sign up, you can request someone who lives in that area to go and photograph it, and they will. The people who join that web site help each other with their requests and it is free.

My great uncle and his wife are buried at Ridgecrest Baptist Church and I was hoping someone would photograph their graves for me as I was working on a book. But I got no takers.
