Magazine Submissions
When shooting with submission in mind: Is it better to shoot what you want, and see which mags are interested when the results are in? Or identify magazines you want to shoot for, and shoot content aimed at them? Also, is it worth asking them in advance what they're looking for, so you shoot exactly what they want?

Apr 16 14 06:38 pm Link Magazines will usually have an "editorial calendar", which is usually a years worth of concepts per month. They'll also have their lead time listed, like 2-3 months from publication for submission. So you can plan accordingly. Some calendars are more specific than others (some will just say something like: August 2014 - fire). Anyway, you can ask the magazine for theirs.

Take Dark Beauty Magazine for example; when you go the their submission section they have all the details for the themes laid out until December and also how many different looks you need for an editorial.
