Pictory is a new website founded by Laura Brunow Miner, former editor-in-chief of JPG Magazine, which aims to be “a new model for online magazines” and showcase the best work of photographers all over the world. Anyone can submit one large, captioned image to each of Pictory’s editorial themes. “I want to help a diverse group of people put together collaborative photo essays,” says Miner. “Pictory is about true, personal stories, and documentation of our lives and cultures. Pictory members don’t have to be professional photographers or writers, but they do have to look, observe, photograph, and consider. A pictory = a picture + story = a captioned image = a photo story.” The first photo story, entitled, Overseas & Overwhelmed is already on display. Current themes waiting for your submissions include Portrait of a Place: San Francisco, My Most Meaningful Image and The House I Grew Up In.
