National Geographic photographers are all independent contractors – that means that their contracts cover one story at a time. No contract, no work; no work, no pay check.

The editorial rate in the US is about $400-$500 per day.

To get into National Geographic, you have to offer them something they don’t already have access to – which is a tall order. It’s not enough just to be a great photographer.

Freelance photographers for Geographic generally keep the rights to their work, so they can market their photos after the magazine has published the coverage. Photographers make a lot of their money that way.
