Bring your portfolio home.
EyeEm is gone, and Freepik is not where your photography belongs. LUMENS is an editorial magazine with a juried community — no feeds, no algorithms, no stock-content farm.
Full ownership of every photograph, in writing. We never hand your work to stock agencies, and you can leave with your archive any time. After EyeEm, that should never be negotiable again.
Submission is free and every photograph is reviewed by a human editor. Selected work is published in the gallery — and the strongest becomes a hero image on our front page or appears in the printed quarterly.
Museum-grade print sales, and a $10 payout every time a published photograph reaches 1,000 views. The money flows toward photographers, not away from them.
Checking your session…
- Sign in with your email (magic link — no password).
- Accept the ownership terms — they protect you, not us.
- Upload your EyeEm export ZIP, or simply select the photos from the extracted folder.
- Your photos land as private drafts with titles carried over from the filenames.
- Review them on your submission desk, polish titles and stories, and submit your best to the editors.
EyeEm profile pages are offline, so imports work from your export ZIP — the file EyeEm emailed when you requested your data. Never requested it? Some archives can still be recovered; write to us and we'll try to help.
