SUBMIT A VARIETY
Make your photo editor's job easy by giving her lots
of images to choose from (images keyed to the particular
story, that is; not images in general).
Not only should you submit a generous number of photos
to cover your story, you should submit a wide variety.
When you're shooting, remember to include both horizontals
to verticals. Leave space around the top and sides to
allow for a variety of layouts and logos. Although this
may cause an imbalance to the composition of your picture,
the photo editor will love it because she can use this
"dead space" for headlines, sub-heads and other
typography.
Shoot varying amounts of water, sky and land for the same
subject. To vary the mood and lighting, shoot the same
subject at different times of the day, and at different
aperature openings.
Why make the editor's job easy? So she'll turn to you
first the next time she needs images.
