Call to artists <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Robert Harding photographers<\/a>, go the extra mile to create stunning, distinctive, and award-winning images. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a foothold in every corner of the globe, our content is fresh, inspiring & accurately documents our recognition and appreciation of the beauty in nature, travel, and wildlife. We are proud of our artists, and our independent picture library status, which allows us to work closely with each individual, offering feedback, guidance, and even tailored creative briefs based on their field of expertise. This is what makes us the destination for world-leading travel, nature and wildlife photography, and video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You don’t need to be a professional, you just need commitment, passion, & the ability to provide new work on a regular basis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Images or video we accept must be exclusive to us, this includes any similar work from the same shoot that was not selected. You are welcome to work with other agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Submissions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Accuracy<\/strong> – We will only accept images of the highest quality, with great composition and subject matter.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Subject Matter<\/strong> – Diversity & inclusiveness are at the forefront of our ethos. Wildlife photography should be respectful of the surrounding environment and follow conservation codes of conduct<\/a>. We discourage photography that is staged, caged, or of captive subjects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Format Requirements<\/strong> – Images must be submitted as highest quality jpegs and be a minimum of 5100 x 3400 pixels. Images should be native size and not be interpolated to reach this size as it reduces the quality. Images with digital artifacts, colour banding, sensor dust, over-sharpening, etc. will be rejected. For more information see our Submission and Upload Guidelines photograph submission and upload guidelines.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Picture Sets | Similar stock <\/strong>– Similars are images or videos that when put side by side would look to the viewer to be substantially the same. For example, images featuring the same model, location, background, composition, technique, concept, or a combination of these factors would be considered similar. Get in touch with us if you’re still unsure, we’re happy to help. We encourage our artists to contribute to our picture sets<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drone content <\/strong>– Following our submission guideline, we accept drone content, subject to having and providing to us any required model\/property releases for commercial use. However, there are legalities to be aware of when flying a drone to capture stills and video for commercial use. Video guidelines can be viewed here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
