SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS

Send your submission to submissions@thirstforvision.com
Please follow these simple guidelines when submitting your work:
1. Give your email the subject title: Submission - Name - Date of Issue (e.g.
Submission - Stacy Ann - September/October)
2. For idea submissions attach a moodboard and model options. For completed stories please send a contact sheet in PDF or JPG form (please note we will not download files from external hosts such as WeTransfer or Dropbox until we have seen and selected your images).
3. Submissions must be unpublished, this also means we do not want stories that have appeared on-line.
4. Include a document that outlines team credits, this is required even if your team consisted of only the model and the photographer.

Once we have accepted your work please send the high resolution files in one package, we will not click multiple links. Within this package we expect the following:
1. High resolution images (minimum 300dpi) - without borders, graphics (unless previously seen) and credits. Images should be the final retouched images only.
2. Team credits.
3. Wardrobe credits (this is compulsory even if the styling was entirely the stylists own).
4. We also appreciate a suggested title for the story (this is not compulsory).

REQUESTS FOR COMMISSIONING & PULL LETTERS

We will supply letters on request, please read the following suggestions before enquiring:
1. We need to see a full plan of the story to approve, this includes team credits and model options
(we will not provide a letter if there is no package).
2. You accept we may not run the story once it is complete if it does not suit the issue.
3. Supply full contact information for both the photographer and the stylist.
4. You understand that SÝN is not responsible in the eventuality that clothing is damaged.

REASONS FOR REJECTION
