Blue Blood is currently considering new photographic submissions from now through the end of September 2014. Work will be considered on a rolling basis and deadline for this reading period is September 30, 2014.
While Blue Blood is open to beginners, it is a creative venue for established photographers, artists who have a vision and are committed to their craft. Blue Blood is primarily interested in contributions from those who have a significant body of work. Photographers Blue Blood has published include Justice Howard, Gunter Blum, Carlos Batts, Bodó Janos Attila, Chad Michael Ward, Ashley Fontenot, Christine Kessler, Roman Sluka, Larry Bradby, Julie Simone, Jim Hancock, Jay Allan, and, of course, Amelia G and Forrest Black.
Publication process:
(1) Create great work (or find that collection of great work you’ve created.)
(2) Porfolio review: Email samples or a portfolio link to submit@blueblood.net. Social media profiles, such as Instagram or even ModelMayhem, are fine for the purpose of a portfolio to show what your work is like. If you are accepted to submit, you will receive an invitation at this stage. Blue Blood considers portfolios from all, but Blue Blood only accepts actual set submissions from invited artists at this time. If you do not hear back within 2 weeks, please feel welcome to contact again to follow up.
(3) Receive a DropBox invite.
(4) Submission: Submit your full completed sets via DropBox.
(5) Get your work accepted and complete final paperwork.
(6) Get published, tell everyone you know, get paid, and celebrate!
(7) Repeat 
Themes to consider in selecting what to submit:
GothicSluts.com – gothic girls, the more dark eyeliner/black lips/bats/spiderwebs/fishnets, the better
BarelyEvil.com – punk teens, strange insertions and devil themes are plusses
EroticFandom.com – science fiction and fantasy themes, cosplay, comic books, monster makeup, vampires
RubberDollies.com – latex and rubber couture, both on and off altmodels
BlueBlood.com – preference for real life counterculture couples shoots
Models with more than 50 completed shoots, and at least one popular social media profile, are also invited to query about doing a site themed around them.
It is strongly preferred that a number of photo sets be submitted at the same time. Most sets feature a sequence of some sort and tell a bit of a story and thus end up being 60 to 160 images. Rates can be higher, if you do the post-processing, but you do not have to. Less explicit sets are expected to be shorter and more explicit series are usually longer. Work submitted on a piecemeal basis is generally considered long after work submitted in batches. Submissions will be temporarily closed after the September 30, 2014 deadline.

Bonus Blue Blood VIP and Erotic Fandom update.
So artist Kevin Flint made an apocalyptic gun turret. So I felt compelled to put gorgeous naked people in it. Busty beautiful Larkin Love comes with the delightful enthusiasm.
I’m feeling really worn out, but at least I can tell I’ve gotten a ridiculous amount of things done. This series Forrest Black and I shot of Scarlet Starr just posted to EroticFandom and the Blue Blood VIP. Raygun accessories by the most excellent Kevin Flint.
This series Forrest Black and I shot of Yolanda is sort of a companion piece to the most recent Erotic Fandom update. The skull armor Yolanda is wearing here, as well as the chainmail skirt, is also from Retail Slut. Her hair is courtesy of the fine folks at Diva Luxe. I’m happy I feel like we managed to capture Yolanda’s sleek elegance well. Whole series of all 33 Yolanda Blue Blood appearances in the Blue Blood VIP.
With the silver makeup and futuristic glam armor from Retail Slut in this outfit, I like to think of this series Forrest Black and I shot as the Spiders from Mars shoot. I love metal clothing. I decided I kind of liked this image from the nude portion of the shoot as the one shot I could share though, so y’all will have to sign up for Erotic Fandom or Blue Blood VIP to see the metal spider top.
I’m really happy Blue Blood is able to publish this special Erotic Fandom shoot by yours truly and Forrest Black. It stars Nicotine, making her fourth Blue Blood appearance, wearing couture from our long-time friends at Brute Force Studios, and showing off one of the new line of steampunk rayguns from Lady Clankington. Special thanks to The Death Knight for the kickass steampunk location. Whole series available in the Blue Blood VIP and well worth it, if I do say so myself. Watch for an interview with the lovely Nicotine coming up. Forrest Black also shot some video of Nicotine and the raygun’s creator demonstrating proper product, uhm, placement. Check out the photos and you’ll be able to tell where we took a break from shooting them and did the video part and then came back to the photography portion of the show. I think this is a really fabulous shoot and I’m really happy to get to share it with you all.

Seeing the cantina scene in Star Wars was a watershed moment for me. I looked at the motley crew of freaks and degenerates and weirdos and heroes having fun and looking to be productive and I wanted to go to there. I love really over-the-top clothing and I’ve been really enjoying all the great costuming this site lends itself to. People always ask me if I personally own more leather or more latex, but the answer is I own more metal; I love armor.
Blue Blood VIP members have had access to a lot of hot costume content and fiction by top genre writers for years, but, with the launch of EroticFandom.com, there is a place to really highlight this aspect of Blue Blood. The first conventions Blue Blood exhibited at were all SF&F ones. I’m not 100% sure whether my first published fiction work was science fiction or nightclub lit, so I suppose I’ll have to organize my filing cabinets if I want to know the answer to that, but I digress.
Erotic Fandom is a site where goth-industrial punk and science fiction fantasy horror converge to give you super sexy chicks in chainmail, steampunk vixens, ray gun seductresses, vampire beauties, hot cosplay, cool cyberpunk . . .

This image I shot of the beautiful, responsible yet fun-loving Kellie LaPlegua is the first in a two-parter on her and Louis Fleischauer for Marquis. You all may recall that I posted an, err, dog-fucking photo from the latter half of this shoot a while ago. Given that Marquis was fine with me posting some of the stuff of Crash from last ish, I’m assuming it is cool to share these with the world now. Hopefully this is the case. This will be like the 31st issue I think of Marquis which features Forrest Black‘s and my Big in America column. Whole series in Blue Blood VIP and on the new Erotic Fandom (which I should really make a post about here too.)
