The World Nomads website is temporarily unavailable while we complete system changes as part of the global sale of World Nomads to its new owner, IMG. IMG is working hard behind the scenes to reflect the change in ownership and ensure a smooth transition. Our technical teams are implementing these changes to ensure a seamless customer experience and expect the website to be available again within approximately 2 hours.
Thank you for your patience while we complete this work.

Take our readers on a journey, as seen through your eyes.
The photo essays we feature in our Stories section are more than a series of beautiful images – they capture the essence of a place, its people, its wildlife, its customs. Along with images and captions, our photo Stories also share the personal perspective of the photographer: why they were there, what they learned, what they felt.
We're looking for images with rich and vibrant color, dynamic composition, mystery, and a sense of emotion in every exposure.
Our images always:
Our photo essays also fall under one of our five Stories categories: Love, Fear, Connection, Discovery, and Transformation.
Before you pitch, please get familiar with our Stories categories, and take a look at our Photography Guidelines and our Responsible Travel Manifesto.
5-15 images and 300-500 word personal narrative, plus captions
Photo essays will only be commissioned upon seeing the photos. The number of slides will be confirmed with you upon commissioning. We pay on publication.
5-8 slides $350 USD
9-12 slides $450 USD
13-15 slides $600 USD
Please fill out the form below. We’d love to see your working title (40 characters max), which category it fits under, and a short synopsis (no more than 250 words) explaining the subject of your pitch, your reasons for exploring this particular aspect of culture, and how it affected you personally – what you learned, how you felt. Also, tell us a little bit about yourself and your professional experience. Please provide links to your photography (ideally, images that will be featured in your essay).
Please note we receive a lot of pitches, and unfortunately we can’t respond to all of them. If we decide to pursue your idea, we’ll let you know.
