Submissions
Information on submitting portfolios:
Magnum Photos is a co-operative owned and run by its members/photographers. They meet once a year during the last weekend in June to discuss the organisation's affairs. One day of the meeting is set aside for looking at and voting on potential new members' portfolios.
Successful applicants will be invited to become a "Nominee Member", a category of membership which presents an opportunity for Magnum and the individual to get to know each other. At this stage there are no binding commitments on either side. In 2007 three new nominee members were accepted.
Photographers based in the United Kingdom, the Commonwealth, Africa, South East Asia and the Middle East who wish to be considered should get their portfolios to Magnum Photos' London office. Please email magnum@magnumphotos.co.uk if you have any further questions. Please note that Magnum London is only considering digital submissions.
Those residing in the Americas should submit their portfolios to our New York office, which can be contacted at photography@magnumphotos.com. Please note that Magnum New York is only considering digital submissions.
Photographers within Europe (excluding the United Kingdom) must submit portfolios to our Paris office: magnum@magnumphotos.fr
Photographers based in Japan must submit portfolios to our Tokyo office: tokyo@magnumphotos.co.jp
Applicants must make their own arrangements to deliver and collect their portfolios if required. Magnum Photos cannot take responsibility for any portfolios sent by the post. Please make sure that all material is clearly labelled with contact details, content and the specific format. All portfolios will be ready for collection in July.
Please note that these are provisional details and are liable to change. Please phone or e-mail Magnum offices closer to the time to check dates.
We regret that due to confidentiality reasons, Magnum cannot give out personal information regarding our photographers, nor can we enter into correspondence regarding any decision made about Nomineeship.
