Call for Photojournalism
As we head into fall (and I am sooo happy about that), I want to put a call out to photojournalists/documentarians with projects needing a platform. I will be curating an issue of a soon-to-be released online magazine, and am looking for material to publish.
Their first issue is soon to go live, and when it does I can name the publication. My issue will be number 3 and is scheduled for November. I am looking for stories from anywhere and everywhere that offer us a strong, new view of the world. This is a wonderful opportunity that I hope brings all kinds of work that I can consider. I am accepting both B&W and color stories.
Please don’t send me dozens of images to look at. Either direct me to your website or blog, or send 4-5 images that capture the story. There is, unfortunately, no payment. But this new magazine is coming from a source that I support 100%.
As I know more, you'll know more. But I'm really excited about this, so tell your friends and send me your stories. Email me at info@stellakramer.com with your work or any questions.
Show me what you got!
NOTE:
I wanted to add something here to those who think I am a despicable person looking to take advantage of photographers.
First of all, I am not commissioning or assigning photographers for free. I would never do that. I am only interested in existing material.
Second of all, I am not being paid, and the magazine's founder is not being paid for this. We are looking to create a platform for work to be seen, so that possibly it will bring paying work to the photographers. Let me state here I do not advocate people working for free. NEVER! But these days the more people who see your work the better for you.

Interesting. I am glad that you added the paragraph about compensation and intent. There are those who will think the worst.
This is very interesting and I will have to consider the possibilities
I am glad to see Trent over at the click posted up a brief and also Pix LA, which is where I ran accross your post.
