Readers Gallery Photos

Are there guidelines for photographing models for submission to the Readers Gallery of the magazine. In particular, I’m curious about the background as it appears most are photographed against a white or light “hidden horizon” type backdrop. Is this set up expected from the raw photos or is it done by magazine editors?

Hello,

Here are a couple of our guidelines for photography. Backgrounds are done by the modelers. It doesn’t need to be anything more fancy than a piece of thin poster board that can be curved up behind the model to for a seamless backdrop.

I look forward to seeing your contribution.
