I have some photos that I would like to sell to a local publication, what format should I email the editor?

I would put a portfolio online and email a link. Also offer to send a digital file or CD. Editors don't want to have an email open up full of unsolicited pictures, they may see the file size and delete it without ever opening it.

Never give high resolution images without a contract.

Call or email and ask how your photos should be submitted. The body of your email should contain a description of each photo along with a scanned copy of any Model Releases you have as an attachment. Remember, your images are copyrighted the moment you take them. Registering them with the Copyright Office adds a layer of protection but as long as you can prove you took them you own them.

i could not sell a image of the baby like that. What in many cases happens is that somebody gets a carry of a few random shot and sells them besides...a image with out permission. i think of the ideal element for action picture star mum and dad to do is that in the event that they are going to sell a image, donate all the money to a remarkable charity interior the call of the youngster.

Make a pdf of all the images you have ans send the pdf. Or insert all the images into a word document and email him.
