The How To Self Publish a Photobook Workshop is a great opportunity for people interested in publishing their own photography book to discover insider secrets. Workshop participants will be given all the necessary tools and insight that they will need to start self-publishing right away.

The course covers a variety of contemporary publishing models, from the zine to the traditional perfect-bound photography book. There will be theoretical and practical advice to help you with the editing, sequencing and design of publications. The course will bring insights from Ceschel’s long experience of how best to distribute and market work.

During the two-day intensive in-person workshop each participant will present his or her own idea to the class and then bring their project to life using publishing software. The workshop ends with the presentation of participants’ newly designed photography books.

This is a workshop for everyone who has an existing photographic series that they would like to make into a book.


This workshop has been hosted by organisations including Aperture Foundation, Photo LA (United States), La Fábrica (Spain), Offprint (France), MiCamera (Italy), Hydra (Mexico), Goliga (Japan) and in universities including the Maryland Institute College of Art (United States) and University of the Arts London (Britain).
