Not stupid at all mate :thumbs: My interpretation, is that editorial work, is work that is commissioned for publication. :thumbs:

Im thinking that there must be a different style of shot, so im trying to pinpoint what shows that a photo has great editorial qualities.
If that makes sense.

Editorial isn't a style though, it's a category. If a shot has editorial qualities then I suppose it's because it has a strong significance or relation to the accompanying text/article.

In addition, a good example of an editorial photographer would be that they can excel in re-enforcing the article/text with their imagery.
 
as above - but an editorial portrait is usually required to tell or re-enforce a story - so often shows the subject 'in context' - rather than just a head & shoulders type shot.
