Rock Out Books

Rock Out Books is the shop for Retro Photo Archive and Jay Blakesberg Photography, run by father-daughter duo Jay and Ricki Blakesberg. It's where images from both archives become fine-art prints and books you can take home.

We're also an independent book publisher. We work with photographers and collections to bring their work to print, helping with curation, editing, design and everything in between, so images that might otherwise sit unseen in storage find their way onto the page.

Each original photograph by Jay Blakesberg and Retro Photo Archive is archivally printed on Hahnemühle Rag paper, created from the original negative, transparency or digital file under the direct supervision of Jay Blakesberg. Every print comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Prints 11x14 and larger are released as limited editions, hand signed and numbered by Jay Blakesberg. 8x10 prints are offered as an open edition.

Every print and book we make is built around the same commitment: preserving photographic history and supporting the photographers behind it.
