What is the world coming to.. not allowing photos of a childrens nativity.

Anyway, I would probably try Flickr - look for images which arent copyrighted etc and ask the owners permission, you should be able to find something and someone who will let you use an image for free.

Thanks , we are allowed to do the video footage (in conjunction with OFFSTED) . We then send out disclaimers to parents for permission for use of cameras to take photos of there child (if they are in the play) if just one parent objects then we are not allowed photography . were will i find these photos . Thanks

If you go to flickr.com and use their search you should be able to find quite a few photo's under "Nativity" or some other keyword. Then you will need to contact the owner of the photo (may need to sign up for an account for this) and ask permission. I can't see many people objecting if its for non-profit use.

How about just taking a video still and blurring it out.....if you do it right that would work well.
