Self Publish, Be Happy

Parr and Badger include Self Publish Be Naughty (2011) in the third volume of their photobook history. Critic Sean O'Hagan, writing in The Guardian, said "An accurate measure of SPBH’s importance to the contemporary cottage industry is the array of photobooks they have featured that I would cite as contemporary classics." ==Publications (selected)==
