Hello everyone.
I would like to submit editorial images for the first time, but not every agency accept them. I have my portfolio in SS, Dreamstime, AdobeStock, Getty, Pond5, Alamy, 123rf, Bigstockphoto .
SS + dreamstime they accept editorial, but how is rest of them with editorial acceptance? Or is there any agency what specialized on editorial images? Thanks a lot guys.

OK, thanks. BTW I just uploaded images to Getty, I want to submit them, but there is no editorial choice there. Is that right?

So you submit to multiple agencies and don't know what they accept or don't accept? I think a bit of due diligence is on order here.

FT Adobe don't accept. iStock Getty only takes some kinds, none that are the same as Getty hired photographers and sources. Some take illustrative editorial, some don't. It's not an easy question until you decide what kind. Then there's the next question, who actually makes sales for these.

Thanks YadaYadaYada. Like I said, I want to submit them for the first time and I will see, whether this is the way for me. It's travel, european capitals. Thank again.

Take notes, I'm sure people will give you all kinds of bits about the different agencies and their fine points.

I think travel is safe from the Getty limiting of IS. Sports, celebrities and some news, entertainment, is no longer accepted and they cleaned house on some people I know, removed their Editorial images.
