Photo Usage: Your remarkable photographs will grace the covers and pages of our local tourism publications. They will be used in the marketing of the magazine in print and online. Your photos will become the visual ambassadors that entice and engage our audience. We are searching for images that evoke emotions, tell compelling stories, and showcase the captivating essence of our region.
For each magazine, we need 5 to 7 photos that exude the charm and diversity of the Prescott-Russell region and its people. Families have many forms, and we would love to see that reflected in these photos!
If your photos are chosen as the winning submissions for the project, please keep in mind the following final photo quality requirements:
- Composition: Submitted photos should showcase the scenic beauty of our region and evoke a strong sense of tourism appeal. They should be visually appealing, engaging, and have a strong visual impact.
- Resolution: The cover photo should be in high resolution, typically at least 300 dots per inch (DPI). This ensures sharpness and clarity when printed.
- File Format: The requested file format is high-quality JPEG. This format preserves image quality and allows for further adjustments during the design and printing process.
- File Size: The file size should be large enough to accommodate the high resolution (300 DPI) and quality requirements of the print medium.
- Copyright and Consent: All submitted photos must be free of copyright restrictions, and you must obtain consent from the individuals featured in the photographs.
