Many of you will know that we haven’t really opened Nova Gallery for submissions before. But we feel it’s now the time to do so, we are inviting photographers to submit a small selection of images for consideration.

We are currently an online only gallery, however we now have a business premises near Tunbridge Wells, Kent and will be running exhibitions from time-to-time. Also, our current Nova Gallery site is undergoing a major re-design and will be launched soon, so watch this space.

With the new website and premises we are looking for some great new photographers to add to our list of ever-growing talented individuals and will launch with some stunning new work.

Nova Gallery currently supports a number of charities by donating an amount of every sale to: Amnesty International, BTCV, PhotoVoice, The Prince’s Trust, Shelter and VSO. You can find out more on the Nova Gallery Charities page.

But it’s not just about charity, the photographers also make money from the sales and more information on how that works can be found at the Nova Gallery FAQs page.

Work should be submitted in a certain way and failure to do so will result in your images not even being looked at.

Remember you must have high resolution versions of any images you submit, whether that be digital files or a negative to produce a high resolution and high quality scan.

Please submit your images via email to: enquiries@novagallery.co.uk

Please make sure the subject title of your email is: Submission - Your Name

Please submit between 1 and 5 images.

Please make the images 1000 pixels on the long edge.

Please make sure your email doesn’t exceed 5MB.

Please include your personal details:
Including your name, date of birth, postal address, telephone number, email and website address.

If we decide to offer some of your works for sale, we will require a number of things.

1. The high resolution file from you.
2. A photographer’s agreement to be signed.
3. Some text about yourself.
4. Some text about the image.
5. An image of you.

That’s pretty much all we need to get you up and running. We hope that you will then do a little promotion of the image yourself, by letting friends and family know that you have the image for sale with us, including a link from your website to the image on our site etc.

In addition to offering your image(s) for sale through Nova Gallery, we are also here to help promote your career as a photographer. So if you have a show or work with another gallery, we can promote that through our blog and social media accounts.

We have calibrated equipment and are able to produce your images as high quality prints, either through our trusted labs or by printing in-house with a number of fine art papers.

We hope to hear from you soon.
