Nazraeli Press is a publisher of books of photography.[1] It was founded in 1989, in Munich, Germany, by Chris Pichler[2] and has been based in the USA since 1996.

Nazraeli publishes roughly 30 new titles each year[2] and has published over 400 with work by photographers from the United States, South America, Europe and Asia.[3] Pichler runs the company with director Alison Crosby.[2] Nazraeli publishes traditional monograph books, and also produces books in various niche series where each series has its own characteristics: One Picture Book, NZ Library, and Six by Six.

Nazraeli has been based in Germany (1989–1996), Tucson, Arizona (1996–2001?), Portland, Oregon (2001 – 2014/2015?) and Paso Robles, California.[4] (since 2014/2015?). It has facilities in Manchester, England, for sales in Europe.

Nazraeli publishes traditional monographs with print runs up to 3000 copies,[2] and also produces these book series:

In conjunction with Joy of Giving Something (JGS), Nazraeli distributed the seven issues of JGS' journal, Witness, between 2007 and 2009. For each issue a different photographer guest edited – choosing their own work and that of others for inclusion, and designing the cover and much of the contents.[10]
