From emerging artists to established photographers, photoED magazine shares photography stories in a brand new light, publishing well considered submissions that are original art works, crafted with intention.
Submissions are blind reviewed by our Volunteer Curatorial Editorial board members. When examining entries, judges will assess how the work presents a unique interpretation on the theme of MOVEMENT.

If your work does not relate to this theme, please stay tuned for future Calls.
Print publishing is a unique and rare privilege that offers artists a legacy document of their work and story. We love how it feels to hold beautiful images in your hands, and we want to share this experience with everyone.
