For
Collectors

The experience of collecting photography books is incredibly gratifying. The benefits come from amassing a visual representation of contemporary culture, a catalogue of our visual history or examples of the best in the craft of book editing, design, and printing. For years, I have worked with clients to hone their vision, advising on some of the best contemporary publications, book objects and historical necessities that will make any photobook library the envy of book lovers. Collecting photography books is a passionate experience that satisfies the collectors both for its visual rewards and, often, for its future financial value.

Services may include:
• Collection education, development and book recommendation service
• Library organization and valuation
• Photobook education and discussions
• In-person library consultation
• Photobook guidance and tours
