Lots of questions that can all be summed up in &#8220;How do you find them?&#8221; Find who, the photo buyers, the photo editors, the folks to send your text\/photo packages to to get published, that&#8217;s who!<\/p>\n<p>Understand this all starts with your images, then your written word and those should be based in part on the magazine you&#8217;ve selected to send them to and what&#8217;s this short piece is about. You need to haunt the magazine rack, doctor office and tire store, any place where there is a stack of magazines and then start flipping through the pages. You might need to think outside the box. Like if you&#8217;re wanting to place an article on wildlife, you might look at <em>Golfing<\/em> which does a lot on wildlife on the greens. The key here are your photographs, your story and then the homework. Once you have the magazine you want to submit to (and don&#8217;t start with the big boys, start local to learn the ropes), just open it up!<\/p>\n<p>You will find the Masthead and there you will find the photo editor \/ art director \/ head illustrator, the person who buys the photographs. Yes, I send my text\/photo package to them. No, I don&#8217;t send a query letter. Why would you try to sell someone your photographs with a piece of paper with just words on it?<\/p>\n<p>So you find them starting by looking at your own photographs and then doing some homework. It&#8217;s a well proven technique that works time and time again for photographers. There is more on making a submissions here on the website as well in my <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.moosepeterson.com\/blog\/mooses-podcasts\/\">podcast archives<\/a><\/strong>.
