How do you get them to print them in a mag?

do you just send them in (email) and hope they like/use them?
do you get anything in return?
did you have to send in a text/story as well as the pics.


btw - Congratulation!

I emailed the editor of a number of magazines that cover the cars that I normally photograph with some links to pics that I had. I was lucky that Kev Elliot at CC liked the pics and needed some of a show I had covered as they didn't have any photos of it. Once he had used some and the door was open I sent him a disc of some other shows, some of these are in this month and some will be in next month.

I hadn't considered the copy to go with the pics but Kev asked me if I would do a small write up and captions for all the pics which I have done. I now carry a notebook in my camera bag for taking down oweners names and car specs when I take the pics as it saves time later one. Yes I do get paid for them too, money I will reinvest in some better glassware
