FAQs

LYBELL Magazine Issue 33 (July 2022). Page 3.

Is there a special submission for covers?

No, our editors consider every submission as a possible cover photo. Our editors look for close up, in focus photos of models for the covers. Click here to view our recent cover issues for reference. We do not pre-select images for our covers from social media. After an issue has enough submissions, the go through all of them and select the photo they feel best fits the cover. Unlike other magazines, we do not charge for cover submissions. This gives everyone an equal opportunity to be on the cover.

How much does it cost to submit my work?

It does not cost to submit to our issue! You will receive a free tearsheet of your photograph if it is selected. If you are interested in the physical or digital copy of the issue, that will be the only cost for submission.

Could I have a free copy of the magazine since my work is published?

We do not give out free copies of the magazine, and we do cover this by stating it in our submission instructions. We are saving for our fashion show and if we did give out free issues, our business would not be able to continue.

What if I do not hear back about my submission?

When your photo is reviewed, we will either send you an email with the preview of your photo for the magazine, or we will let you know why your submission is not accepted. If you had not heard back in a few weeks, please contact us on Instagram and provide your email address so we can look to see if we received your submission.

Can you post my photograph on your social media?

We only feature photos that have been featured in our magazines on social media. We do not post every photo that has been featured. If you have been featured in our magazine, you can post the tearsheet on your story and tag us. We will repost it on our story. If you have not received a tearsheet, please email us and let us know which issue you were in.
