About

Bump Books was established in 2009 as an independent publishing outlet for London based photographer David Solomons. Beginning with the simultaneous release of both Happenstance and Underground this site aims to provide a platform for both previewing and purchasing books and signed prints directly from the photographer.

In 2020 the site was relaunched to create a dedicated shop for the new street photography zine ‘B’. Beginning with the first issue 'The League of Bald Headed Men’ released in November 2019, the zine will showcase a variety of projects from both established and upcoming street photographers.

Submissions

Please note that I generally operate on an invitation only basis. As a general rule of thumb I am only interested in publishing work that fits a specific theme rather than a general portfolio. If you would like to send me a link to your work I will happily consider it, but please be aware I have very limited time to respond to any requests. Due to printing tecnical difficulties, I am currently not publishing any black and white work. Projects that either in part or whole ulitlize A.I. technology will not be accepted. Thank you for your interest and support.

Stock

Due to the limited space I have, I initially only order a moderate % of an edition for each zine, so items marked as ‘Out of Stock’ may become available at a later date if space allows. Once the edition has sold out, it will be marked as such in the description.
