A few months ago i got approached by a US magazine called Popular photography about using one of my pictures for there November Issue.

I was well excited and at first thought it was a joke but i kindly agreed for them to use my image to see what happens. Fast forward to today and they kindly sent me a copy of the magazine with my first ever print i have sold!!!

Well excited. Never imagined any of my pictures could be bought by anyone let alone a magazine.

It is the picture i took above the title "Wet Down" where i was on my way home from a social photo meet up in shoreditch. It was a raining at the time but still took out my camera to take pictures as there was some interesting light and reflections to capture

Good stuff!

Did they contact via flickr/insagram/500 or just direct email? I've noticed a lot contact people via Flickr mostly, Faceboopk very little and some are starting via 500px.
 
Congrats!

OT: The retouching on the opposite page looks terrifying!

Congrats OP

Your right about Portrait Pro I'm sure it has its more subtle uses but all the adverts seem to imply it sucks the life out of a person and turns them into something resembling a doll.
