Someone sent me a link to Sports Page Magazine and was wondering if anyone shoots for them.

I looked into SPM. They sent me a contract and I said thanks but no thanks. It gives them full rights to your pictures without any compensation. Exactly what ruins the photographic business and a bad equation by any measure.

Thanks for the information. I really hadn't heard much about them.

Business partner I believe shot with one of their photographers where she explained the deal, made me vomit a bit hearing about it - no pay and no rights, talk about a great opportunity...uh, no!

I've noticed it being exponentially worse this year in the NCAA, at least the teams I've been covering. LOTS of weekend warriors trading images for access.
