Published and Pretty

Published and Pretty, based in Dacula, United States, has carved out a distinctive niche within the public relations and communications landscape. Founded in 2011, the agency focuses exclusively on the wedding industry, offering specialized support for photographers and planners who want to see their work featured in top wedding publications. Rather than providing broad PR services, Published and Pretty zeroes in on a single, high-demand task: managing the entire submission process for styled shoots and real weddings. This targeted approach allows creative professionals to offload a time-consuming but critical part of their marketing strategy.

Specialized Expertise in Wedding Submissions

Published and Pretty’s core competency lies in navigating the often complex world of editorial submissions. The agency understands that for photographers, planners, and other wedding vendors, getting a feature in a respected blog or magazine is a powerful form of validation and lead generation. However, the process—from culling and editing a gallery to writing compelling pitches and following up with editors—can be overwhelming. Published and Pretty steps in to handle these details, leveraging deep knowledge of what editors are looking for. The agency’s founder, Kristen, brings years of experience to ensure that each submission is tailored to the publication’s specific style and requirements, significantly increasing the chances of acceptance.

How Published and Pretty Works

The agency’s service model is built around efficiency and discretion. After a wedding or styled shoot is completed, Published and Pretty takes over the submission workflow. This includes selecting the strongest images, writing engaging story angles, and formatting everything according to submission guidelines. The goal is to free up the client’s time so they can focus on their core business—shooting weddings or planning events—while still reaping the marketing benefits of editorial coverage. Published and Pretty also manages the scheduling and coordination of features, ensuring that the client’s work appears in a timely manner. This hands-off approach is particularly valuable for busy professionals who lack the bandwidth or expertise to pursue publication opportunities on their own.

Services Offered by Published and Pretty

• Styled shoot submission management
• Real wedding submission management
• Gallery culling and image selection
• Pitch writing and editorial outreach
• Feature scheduling and coordination

While the agency’s service list is concise, each offering is executed with a high degree of specialization. For example, styled shoot submissions require a different approach than real wedding submissions, as they are often more conceptual and need to highlight vendor collaborations. Published and Pretty tailors its strategy accordingly, ensuring that every submission is optimized for the target publication.

Who Published and Pretty Serves

Published and Pretty is an excellent fit for wedding photographers, planners, and other vendors who prioritize editorial visibility but lack the time or expertise to pursue it. The agency is particularly valuable for those who have built a strong portfolio but struggle to break into top-tier publications. Because Published and Pretty operates from Dacula, United States, it can serve clients nationwide, handling submissions to both regional and national wedding media. The agency is also well-suited for professionals who want to maintain a consistent presence in the wedding press without the administrative burden of managing submissions themselves. For anyone looking to elevate their brand through editorial features, Published and Pretty offers a focused, results-driven solution that takes the guesswork out of the process.
