Covers all the fundamental skills required for location photography when using Digital, 35mm SLR and medium format cameras working with both existing light sources and introduced light.
Through a series of practical exercises the student photographer is shown the importance of image design, communication of content and the essential techniques required for competent and consistent images capture and creation. The basic essentials, from exposure, to framing the image and how to work with light and contrast are explained in detail.

Illustrated throughout with student and author work, including a new 8-page colour plate section, Location Photography is an inspirational guide as well as a structured learning tool for mastering the essential techniques.

3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I bought this for its 'classroom' style, but unfortunately, I haven't gotten much out of it. The pictures weren't even good examples for me to mimic. I guess I'm glad to have it for future reference, but I did cancel "Studio Photography" off of my order once I read through "Location Photography".
