Think the kids in your life have what it takes to be a Kids Count cover kid? Submit your photos today!
We want kids of all ages – from infants to teens and everything in between.
We want photos of kids being kids – running, playing, laughing, or just hanging out – so no school or senior pictures, please.
We want Nebraska kids. Your grandkids might be the cutest kids ever, but if they live in Colorado, we can’t use their photos. (Sorry!)
Photo Submission Instructions
If you have photos that you would like to send for us to consider including in Voices for Children publications, please note the following requirements:
1.) Deadline for photo submissions to be considered for Kids Count in Nebraska 2016 Report: Friday, November 11. Photos received throughout the year will be considered for other products and publications.
2.) Photos must be submitted electronically; we do not accept any photo prints. Please email photos to: kidscount@voicesforchildren.com with “Kids Count Photo Submission” in the subject line.
3.) Photos must be .jpeg image files at least 300 dpi (no gif files)
(If you don’t know what that means, as a general rule, if you took the photo with a 7-8 megapixel camera or better on the best setting, your photos will be ok to use)
4.) The following information must be provided in the email:
- Photographer’s name
- Mailing Address
- Telephone Number
- Email address
- Number of photos submitted
- Identifying information for each photo (subject name, age, date taken, clothing description for photos of multiple children, etc.)
5.) Photos should be named with identifying information in file name. First and last names are helpful when sorting photos.
General photo preferences: high-quality images featuring Nebraska’s children of a variety of ages; single or group shots; diversity is encouraged; adult caretakers in photos are welcome; backgrounds that showcase Nebraska are also encouraged.
Please note that we receive a large volume of photographs and cannot publish all of them
