Electromagnetic form factors are fundamental quantities which describe the structure and the internal dynamics of hadrons. In the timelike region, proton form factors are experimentally accessible through the e⁺ + e⁻ ↔ p + p channels. Initial state radiation (ISR) is an effective tool to measure hadronic cross section at high luminosity e⁺e⁻ storage rings, such as the Beijing Electron-Positron Collider II (BEPC-II). This contribution reports on the e⁺+e⁻ → p+p+γ analysis for proton form factor measurements at the Beijing Spectrometer III (BESIII/BEPC-II). The case of untagged ISR photon is presented. Monte Carlo simulations for signal and background processes at center of mass energies 4.23, 4.26 and 4.36 GeV, are described.
