Submission Guidelines
​
To keep the submission process streamlined please only send in submissions which follow these guidelines:
​
- Share a Dropbox folder titled with the pinup’s name and month of submission (ie Miss Birdy Bird - June) with PinupLifeMagazine@gmail.com. Include the following 3 things in the folder:
1) 4-10 high resolution (300 dpi), un-watermarked photographs which come from the same set (what we mean by this is we want to see the same outfit/setting so we can create a cohesive layout)
2) A piece of writing from the pinup as a word processing document; it can either be a bio written in the 3rd person, answers the writing prompts that are provided with each month’s themes, or a piece of advice or recommendation for something she wish she knew or had earlier! Our goal at Pinup Life Magazine is to create a community which celebrate an aesthetic of years gone by and we think that by giving the pinups a space to talk about themselves it helps create this feeling.
3) The signed release form which can be found at this link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/duykrch9nk7ents/Pinup%20LIFE%20Release%20Form%20-%20Fillable.pdf?dl=0
You will need to download the document (it's a fillable PDF) and complete it before re-uploading it to your Dropbox folder. We do accept electronic signatures so no need to print!
​

- The upcoming month's themes can be found below but also keep an eye on our Facebook and Instagram pages for announcements.
