When submitting, please follow the guidelines outlined below on this page. Spellbound Magazine reserves the right to Accept or Deny any submission received. Submissions are reviewed based on their content, quality, relevance, and availability.

SPELLBOUND MAGAZINE gives you the opportunity to contribute your work and have it published in a high-end, well-respected independent publication. If you are keen to work with us, we will be more than happy to publish your work. We are part of the Morris Media Publication group and we also have our Fashion & Beauty Magazine Swanky Mag, Swanky Kids Magazine and for those nature & Landscape lovers visit Conker Nature.

*Your editorial must be cohesive, all from the same shoot to tell a story. If you want a wow feel of your Landscape photo on a double page, make sure your subject is not centered to avoid part of the image being hidden when binding the magazine.

* All submissions should be between 4-12 images. If your submissions are over 10 images, we won’t publish all images, a maximum of 8 and a minimum of 2 will be chosen, unless it is a cover story or special feature. We use mostly portrait images, the Lesser the landscape the better. Unless it is intended for a double-page spread.

PLEASE NOTE IMAGES CAN & WILL BE CROPPED TO FIT THE MAGAZINE LAYOUT. (However, we strive to maintain the best image possible) We also advise adequate edging in your image to allow for cropping.

*** WARDROBE CREDITS ***

* For all submissions, wardrobe credits are recommended. They must contain wardrobes and accessories from emerging or independent designers and brands. For Beauty submissions, makeup credits are required. Wardrobe credits will be taken into consideration only if there is a designer’s name. (major brands are NOT allowed e.g Michael Korr or shop like Aliexpress, eBay, Etsy, etc...). ONLY THE DESIGNERS NAME and you can include their website where garments can be found.

*** PURCHASE ***

Once an issue has been released it will be available for purchase via MagCloud. The print copy cost approx. $30-$35 and Digital is around $10

The purchase link will be sent to you via email within 72hrs of your chosen level of submission.

Please make sure when you upload the credits that they are correct, that Instagram handles are added to all team members. (if applicable) This must be done before the deadline. If you need any corrections after publishing, there will be a fee of £20.

Make sure this is your final decision to submit your works in SPELLBOUND MAGAZINE. If you want to remove any images after release, there will be a cancellation fee of £80 as we will have to redesign the magazine completely.

The sorts of images we prefer:

* Unusual and creative ideas
* Good editing with professional-looking skin work
* Variety in the posing, angles, and composition
* Professional make-up

* There is little or no space left for placement.
* The quality of work is not high enough or not to standard.
* Wardrobe is repeated throughout the editorial.
* The submission doesn’t fit the theme for the issue.
* Poses are repeated.
