Sending pics with the text from iPhoto results in bad formatting on the flip side

My question as is: when I format my text with the styles, colors I want before sending them from iPhoto via Apple Mail to other mail services, it changes formatting (e.g., text aligning), cuts off punctuation, changes some colors (e.g., blue one - to black one) and fonts on arriving in recipient's mail service - such as Gmail - inbox.

Is that expected behavior or is possible to overcome somehow?

Your question is not clear:

Are you sending the Photos from Apple mail? or iPhoto?

Some versions of iPhoto could mail directly. If you're simply sharing the photo to Apple Mail and then doing your formatting etc, you have a Mail question not an iPhoto one.

Bear in mind one thing tho:

How a mail looks on the recipients machine is entirely a matter for how they have their machine set up, the app they use and so on. Short of creating a pdf and sending that there no no way for you to determine how an email looks on the recipient's end.
