great photos, greater good

Book Giveaways

If you’re like us, you love photography books in all forms – traditionally published, self-published, zines and magazine style books.  As a bonus to buying a print on collect.give, we’ll give away a free photo book each month, generously donated by one of our participating photographers.  To be eligible to win a book, email kevin@collectdotgive.org and tell us which print you purchased (in that given month), along with the date. At the end of each month, we’ll draw the name of one lucky winner, who will receive the book directly from the photographer. New books will always be added to the list, including upcoming publications with the work of photographers Dalton Rooney and Ben Huff.
