how to get featured online & in print
WELCOME TO OUR SUBMISSION FORM
Thank you for your interest in submitting your wedding or shoot! We’re always on the lookout for inspiring celebrations to share with our readers. Should your submission be declined, please know that you may still be selected for future submissions. No matter our decision, please continue to keep us in mind when shooting and submitting features in the future!
WHAT WE LOOK FOR
– Seasonal weddings and shoots.
Some images we generally keep an eye out for include: vertical shots of the bride and groom, wedding bouquet, bridesmaid fashion, wedding cake, reception table and wedding invitations; as well as detailed shots of the groom’s boutonniere, a seating-chart display, eye-catching backdrops or garlands. For photo shoots, we look for a fresh concept and inspiring images with a mix of portraits, fashion and décor.
Please contact [email protected] with questions.
IMAGE SPECIFICATIONS
– We give strong preference to bright, light and airy images (whether that’s film, hybrid or digital).
– Please send anywhere from 50–100 images for us to consider.
– No watermarks, please.
– Images should be at least 1500px wide, all single files (no collages and no images larger than 3000px wide).
– Keep black and white photos to a minimum.
HOW TO SUBMIT
Please complete the form on this page. If you have a problem, please email us [email protected], but please note that the disclaimer in the form will still apply. Please do not send us submissions that have been published elsewhere online.
LINK TO IMAGES
We welcome a number of different methods for sending images, as long as it does not require the sharing of folders like Google Drive or Dropbox invitations. If using either one, please send us a direct link to the Dropbox folder in lieu of a Dropbox folder invitation, and please ensure that “home” is not present in the URL, or we won’t be able to access it. A direct link saves us both time and space, and will ensure a quicker response. Here are an assortment of our preferred ways to receive images:
– Dropbox folder link
– PASS Gallery link
– Pixieset link
Please paste your image gallery URL in the field to the right. If your gallery requires a download pin or password, kindly make a note of it in the post content section along with your vendor list and story.
We review our submissions monthly and do our best to respond to every wedding or wedding-related submission that follows our guidelines.
