New Photo Request!!!! Motherly Photos

Important:

We don't usually mention the name of the picture researching client for a variety of reasons; commercial confidentiality is paramount, and in the past some errant members have attempted to approach the client direct which has resulted in us getting slapped wrists — or worse, slapped writs.

But because this Picture Call needs you to hit the sweet spot, we recommend you go to Amazon.com and type in Helen Exley. Have a look at the gift books they produce. Then read this Picture Call again.

This is an open Call; there is no deadline. The locations are where you are; they don't have to be set in exotic places. The filesizes demanded are achievable by all our Members. These pictures are always wanted, but very few will be picked. We need photographs of mother love.

Touching, romantic, sentimental but NOT cloying; loving, wistful, tender but NOT schlocky; strong, powerful, forceful but NOT aggressive. Look at books in the genre by Helen Exley — that's what we need.

And the mothers can be any age from 16 to 106. The offspring can be anything from new-born babies to 90 year-olds (if you've found a 106 year-old mum).

Love must shine through. Portrait, landscape, close up, long shots — the love of a mother or mothers must be the story of the picture. The mums don't necessarily have to be human beings, either, though 99% of the ones chosen will be.

Upload data:
1. DEADLINE: Open
2. FILESIZE: 300dpi, colour or B&W, file size >3MB.
3. CODE KEYWORD: EXLMUM (input this among all your other apposite keywords and NEVER use the Code Keyword as your only keyword. Describe the image in full as normal.)
4. CATEGORISE UNDER: People> Motherhood

If you feel you already have existing images on the site which fit the bill, just add the unique code keyword to them.

And remember, the only way you can make your pictures available for consideration by the buyers in any Picture Call is to upload them to the fotoLibra site and to include the special Code Keyword among your other keywords. Please do not mark your images as Royalty Free and do not send them to me as there is nothing I can do with them — my opinion would be highly subjective and probably not helpful. Please also make sure that they always match or exceed the requested resolutions and file sizes.
