Photography

Do you find beauty in the Charles River parks? Do you love taking photographs? Are you an aspiring photographer looking to expand your portfolio, or an experienced one looking to give back to your community? We hope you’ll consider donating your photos to the CRC!

How we’ll use your photos

We are always looking for high-quality photographs to use in our communications materials. If you decide to donate a photograph, you may see it on our:

  • social media
  • e-newsletters
  • website
  • educational materials
  • printed reports and mailings

Donating a photo does not guarantee its use. Whenever possible, the CRC will include the photo credit you provide.

Types of photos

Though we welcome many types of photos, we’re specifically interested in the following types of images:

  • Photos that highlight the natural beauty of the urban Charles River and its parks.
  • Photos of native plants and wildlife found in the urban Charles River parks.
  • Photos that spotlight the diverse activities that take place in the Charles River parks. (Please note that we will not be able to use images that include recognizable features of an individual.)
