Free submission trackerThis directory lists art book publishers and photo book publishers we have verified, with 31 presses on the page right now. You can see which ones take proposals directly from authors and what each one asks you to send. Most publishers here produce illustrated nonfiction on art, design and photography. Several also publish children's books. Each listing is checked against the publisher's own site, but guidelines change, so confirm the details before sending. Use the filters to narrow by location, then open a profile to read how that press wants to receive your proposal.
How to choose an art or photography publisher
Start with subject fit. Publishers of art books tend to focus on clear areas, and a strong match matters more than a big name. Lund Humphries centers on the visual arts. Heyday wants nonfiction about California and the American West. Princeton Architectural Press takes children’s picture books as well as adult proposals. Academic presses such as The MIT Press, Intellect and the University of Minnesota Press suit research-led projects. Look at recent books from each press and ask whether yours would sit well beside them.
Open presses and who takes unagented authors
Every publisher on this page currently shows as open. Many of them, including Thames & Hudson, Laurence King, Merrell, Ivy Press and Getty Publications, say they accept proposals from unagented authors. For others, such as Titan Books, Chronicle Books and Frances Lincoln, open the profile to see whether you need an agent before you send anything. Some presses state hard limits too. Thames & Hudson does not publish fiction or poetry, and Laurence King does not publish fiction. We check listings against each publisher’s own site, but you should still confirm guidelines before sending, since policies can change.
What to send with your proposal
Most art publishers ask for a proposal rather than a finished manuscript. Expect to write an overview, a chapter outline or annotated contents and a short author bio. Laurence King also wants notes on the market and competing titles. Visual books need visuals, so include a small set of sample images. Thames & Hudson asks for up to 6. Keep files light and send large ones through a transfer service if the press allows it, as Merrell does with WeTransfer. Think about funding early. Lund Humphries and Heyday both note that highly illustrated books may need a grant or other outside funding. Finally, track response windows. Tate Publishing and Ivy Press treat no reply within three months as a no, and Princeton Architectural Press replies only if interested.
Finding photo book publishers and coffee table book publishers
If you are searching for photography book publishers or photo book publishing companies, read the profiles for presses that name photography in their submission notes. Merrell and Prestel both do. Coffee table book publishers usually focus on large illustrated titles, so look for presses that describe their list as illustrated, such as Laurence King and Ivy Press. Art book publishers in the UK are well represented here, with many based in London. US options include Chronicle Books, Getty Publications and Rockport Publishers. Compare a few profiles, shortlist the ones that fit and shape each proposal to that press’s guidelines.

Questions authors ask
Answers use the live data on this page.
Do art book publishers accept proposals without an agent?
Yes, many do. Thames & Hudson, Laurence King, Lund Humphries, Merrell, Tate Publishing and Getty Publications all say they accept proposals from unagented authors. Each has its own process, from a proposal form to a specific email address for your subject. Read the profile for the press you want, then confirm the current guidelines on its own site before you send anything.
What should a photography book proposal include?
Most presses want a proposal, not a finished book. Plan on an overview, a chapter outline or annotated contents, a short bio and a small set of sample images. Thames & Hudson asks for up to 6 images, and Laurence King also asks for market notes and competing titles. Keep file sizes small and follow each publisher's format rules exactly.
Do I have to pay to publish an illustrated art book?
Not as a submission fee at the presses that state their policy. Lund Humphries and Heyday both say there is no submission fee. Both also note that highly illustrated books, or art and photography books, may need a grant or other outside funding. Ask about costs early, read any contract closely and confirm terms with the publisher before you agree to anything.
How long do art publishers take to reply?
It varies, and some presses reply only if they are interested. Tate Publishing and Ivy Press say no reply within three months means no. Princeton Architectural Press replies only if interested, and Prestel asks you not to follow up on status. Keep a simple log of where and when you sent each proposal, and keep pitching other presses while you wait.
