Guidelines

We will consider up to 30 photos at once—please attach all of your files to the same submission. Photographers may submit as many times as they like as long as each submission is limited to 30 photos.

Uploaded black-and-white image files must be in 72 dpi GIF, JPEG, PNG, or TIFF format. Individual files must be smaller than 2 MB.

Model releases are not required for images taken in a public setting. We ask for model releases in private settings when a person’s face is recognizable.

FAQ

We consider submissions online via Submittable.

We do not consider unsolicited submissions via email.

It is not necessary to title the images in a submission as we will request information about a photo at the time of acceptance. However, if it helps you keep track of which photos you submitted to us, we suggest numbering or referencing them in a way that is helpful to you.

When we accept an image, we will request a high-res file for publication—an uncompressed TIFF or JPEG file at 300 dpi or higher (at roughly 8 × 10 inches or larger).

We try to respond to each submission within one month, though occasionally it takes longer.

You can check the status of an online submission by logging into Submittable, where you can track your submission and see the most recent status.

You can withdraw your online submission from consideration via Submittable.

To withdraw just one image from a submission of multiple photographs, please send us a message through Submittable with the details of the file you'd like to withdraw.

We offer payment upon publication of accepted work. We pay via PayPal or direct deposit.
