We Challenged Our Photo Editors To Create Visual Stories
By Cherrie - 5 min read
Here’s how EyeEm’s Xavier, Brada, Jonny and Madeline fared.
The curation team at EyeEm are capable of remarkable things. They’re helping picture editors and publishers around the world communicate visual narratives, day in day out. With thousands of editorial photos available to license on EyeEm Market, we set them a challenge.
Xavier, Brada, Jonny and Madeline were asked to tell a visual story using only five photos. The photos had to be available on EyeEm Market and licensable for editorial purposes – that being newspaper and magazine articles, for descriptive purposes on blogs, websites and in non-commercial presentations.
Here’s how they got on.
One Night in Paris
Photographer: Stefan Dotter
Curated by Xavier: “Berlin-based photographer Stefan captures the spontaneous every-night life of Paris. These five editorial pictures are an illustration of a generation: a mix of intimacy, love, friendship and rock & roll.”

Curated by Brada: “Traditional Mongol wresting is an important part of Mongolian culture – and Claudia’s images offer a real insight into this, allowing us to discover the world through all its local peculiarities. Not only that, but her profile is consistent and these images tell a real story.”

Curated by Jonathon: “The UEFA Euro 2016 tournament kicks off on June 10th and I wanted to illustrate how we can use editorial sports content to capture the emotion within the game. The Euros will be accompanied by massive sponsorship deals, big brand logos and an array of huge profiles to grace the pitch.”
