Joining & Submissions

Welcome! :camera:
You've stumbled upon #suicidephotography. The aim of this group is to gather people interested in self-portrait photography. It's all about shooting ourselves! With a camera, that is. ;P We accept both beginning photographers and professionals. It's all about the art!


Joining
Click the "Join Our Group" button at the top of our page. Join as a member, and you can submit as many photos as you'd like. We'll be automatically added to your watch list.

What We Accept
Self-portraits! The photos you submit must be taken by you and be of you. We accept devIDs, macros, and regular self-portraits. They don't necessarily have to be categorized as a self-portrait as long as you were both the photographer and the subject. :aww: We only accept photography, so do not submit traditional artwork.

What We DO NOT Accept
We won't be accepting any artistic nude. No offense, but we just don't want to see it, even if it is "artistic." Also, there must be artistic merit to the photos you submit. "MySpace shots," camera phone shots, or photos of grainy quality will not be accepted. It has to be of high quality and it has to be artistic by some sort of means. No random snapshots of yourself unless they are IDs. Nothing trashy, either, please.
Also, if you try to send in like twenty shots that all look relatively similar, chances are not all of them will be accepted. (See "Submission Limits")
Photos that are categorized in anything other than People & Portraits, Photomanipulations, or Macro will be denied because this is a photography group. Only manipulations of the self, taken by oneself (including any other photos in the manipulation), will be accepted. Keep in mind that if you include model stock from someone else, your photo will be denied. You may not like this idea, but it's better than denying every single photomanipulation altogether.

Submission Limits
The submission limit for all members is 5 per day.

Make sure you try to submit your better pieces, in your own opinion, and everyone will be happy. :D And try not to submit an entire photoshoot or session because people don't like when they see a bunch of new photos from the same person/shoot in their deviantWATCH inbox. One or two are fine, but try to be picky about it.

Suggesting Favorites
The only favorites that will be accepted into the Featured folder will be self-portraits. NOTHING ELSE. Don't suggest random nature shots or photos of your sister or something. And if you're a member, please submit your work to the gallery, not the favorites folder. Chances are, you'll get more favorites submitting to the gallery anyway, as people see your work in their watch once it is accepted.

Featured Folder
This will be used for us to choose our favorite, most deserving photos to be showed off to the group! So if your photo is there, feel special. :D

Denied Submissions
Reasons won't be given unless specifically asked for. The usual reason is just that it was a low quality photo. But please don't feel offended if your photo is declined! We love getting submissions. Keep sending some. But PLEASE do not resubmit a denied submission to the group. If it was rejected the first time, there was a reason. Submitting it again does not make that reason disappear, but instead annoys the admins.
Another sad reason a great photo can be declined is if it says in the artist's comments (or we admins realize) that the person in the photo actually isn't you or it appears that someone else took the picture of you. If you don't know what self-portrait OFFICIALLY MEANS, look it up in a dictionary. Actually, here, I'll link you the definition according to Dictionary.com: [link] Read it and weep.

One More Thing
Please submit to the right folder. If your deviation is an ID, please put it in the Deviant IDs folder. We'll move it to the correct folder if you didn't submit to the correct one, but it would be easier for us if you just submit there in the first place. :D

If you have any other questions, leave a comment or send us a note. We'll get back to you as fast as we can!

Hello, suicidephotographers! I hope all is well and that you're taking some amazing self-portraits.

I just noticed that we are not very far from a milestone in suicidephotography history: 1000 members.

I was hoping that perhaps if you enjoy the group enough, you could promote it in some way. Ways would include (but I'm sure are not limited to) creating a poll, a journal entry, a blog post on your own group, or just by inviting interesting self-portraits that you enjoy to the "Invited Photographs" folder in our gallery. Most people enjoy having their photographs invited to a group. :aww: Just as long as they follow our rules, have at it! There's no submission limit, so don't be shy.

I really hope we can reach our 1000-member milestone in the near future. Thank you all for contributing to the group. Expect a huge feature some time soon. We have a lot of featuring to catch up on!

:heart: the admins of #suicidephotography :camera:

Government is like a condom. It allows for inflation, halts productivity, protects dicks and gives you a sense of security while you are being screwed.

You know I actually came here to say how deviantArt isn't Facebook and that self photography isn't really an artistic medium...

But I gotta say, you guys proved me wrong.
Very nice shots here photographers.
