HORSE ILLUSTRATED and YOUNG RIDER Submission Guidelines

We welcome writing and photo submissions from freelance writers, photographers, and artists to the following magazines using the freelancer submission guidelines below.

HORSE ILLUSTRATED serves the hands-on horse owner by promoting the best in horse care, riding and training.  We are an all-breed, all discipline magazine for adult readers. Our goal is to provide easily accessible information about all aspects of responsible horse ownership and issues of interest to the equestrian community.

YOUNG RIDER is the only magazine of its kind specifically for and about horse-crazy tweens and teens ages 8-15. For more than 20 years, it has delivered a fun-filled mixture of English and Western riding instruction, horse care tips, contests, beautiful color posters and stories about real kids. Young Rider continues to encourage and inspire kids to pursue their passion for better riding and horsemanship.

We also welcome press releases about the horse industry as a whole, specific disciplines and breeds, equine events, recent news, and notable people. However, please note that we do not use all press releases that are submitted. The email address above can also be used to submit a press release. Please ensure that press releases have contact information with them for further inquiry. In addition, we need images with press releases. Images should be sent in high resolution (300 dpi, 4×6 inches, at a minimum) and should involve the topic of the press release.
