Submissions

Are you a Mistress, Model or Photographer? Would you like to be featured in Darkside? Here's how...

Photos can be hardcore or soft but should be of a fetish/BDSM nature, and should be accompanied by release forms, available by email: paul.donnelly@darksidemedia.co.uk

Models can be female, male or trans and 18+ and accompanied by release forms. We love fetish and BDSM in all it’s various and diverse forms and welcome body types of all shapes and sizes!

1. Please do not submit photos that have already appeared in multiple magazines or have appeared extensively online. For the benefit of our lovely readers, we much prefer exclusive content. Having said that, if we feel a set of images is particularly good, we may consider them if they have already appeared in a limited form elsewhere.

2. When you submit please send ONLY high resolution images with no logo or watermark. Please do NOT send screenshots, PDF composites or lo-res images off your phone, as these will not be of sufficient quality.

3. Images can be in colour or black & white and should be high resolution jpeg of 300dpi minimum.

4. Our preferred delivery method is WeTransfer.com or Dropbox. When you submit please include all credits in the first instance. We suggest you select YOUR best work from one set, about 10-15 images if possible. We will consider a mix of sets, for example, if showcasing the various styles of a photographer’s work, but generally we prefer a single set.

5. We will inform you of our decision within 1-2 weeks and if successful we will email you to sign a release form, which we will send to you. If you are NOT the copyright holder (ie the photographer) then you must get permission from them before submitting. We will not accept submissions without signed permission from the photographer.  If you are a model, Domme etc and the photos were taken by a photographer, you must seek permission before sending in.

6. Whilst we always try to publish images when we say we will, sometimes changes happen and we have to hold off a set until the subsequent issue.

7. Copyright: Darkside Magazine acknowledges that the photographer retains all rights to his or her work, and will make this known in each publication. Please note that we reserve the right to use photography for any promotional purposes, but the photographer will be credited.

8. Finally, and of vital importance: We do not pay for submissions. We accept that this isn’t suitable for everyone, but we do promise to promote your work and include weblinks and contact details within the pages of the magazine.
