FineArtPhotoblog.com, a side project I sort of fell backwards into, has been running for nearly four months now. Originally the creation of Brian Auer and ultimately featuring six other photographers including myself, the idea was to have a place to share and promote our best work and offer fine art prints for sale. Since the site launched in February, we’ve seen a fair amount of steady growth in terms of targeted traffic, readership and of course content, however we are always looking for new ways to improve the site as a whole.

After some debate and a little planning, we have decided it may be time to add one or two more photographers. We are having an open call for portfolios with a deadline of June 2nd. Anyone out there who’d like to join the Fine Art Photoblog should feel free to submit. If you are in fact interested in submitting, Brian has posted the guidelines and submission form on his blog.

Please keep in mind that this is not a commitment to be taken lightly. Everyone who contributes to the site is asked to do so consistently on a weekly basis, or not at all. This is something we have all put a lot of time and effort into, and we will expect nothing less from new members.

If you feel your work would be a good fit, and are willing to put in the effort, please think about submitting your portfolio for consideration. The maximum amount of images is 20, but please submit at least 10. Again, the guidelines and submission form are posted here.
