Product Description

Product Description
After an explanation of the different processes, films, paper, and formats, the main part of the book looks at the most popular types of photography in black and white - namely Portraiture, Landscape, Still Lifes and Nudes, Architecture and Art, and Reportage. Each subject is examined in a series of throughly practical Case Studies, each of which shows the whole story of an assignment - from negative to contact sheet to finished print - making this a unique teaching tool. John Garrett makes no apologies for laying out the worst as well as the best of his assignments to reveal the problems faced by a professional photographer and how they were solved. A range of subjects, types of commission, and photographic approaches is covered in over 40 case studies. All the cases studies contain considerable emphasis on the photographer's need to communicate effectively. Garrett's accessible, friendly, informative text is packed with advice, techniques, and tips.

About the Author
Australian by birth, John Garrett came to London in 1966. After working as a fashion and advertising photographer, he moved to photojournalism, with assignments for Paris Match, Stern, the Sunday Times, and Time. He later returned to advertising work, and became involved in directing television commercials. He has exhibited widely, including at the Barbican (2001), and has exhibitions planned Sydney and Melbourne (2003). He is the author of many books, including The 35mm Photographer's Handbook, which has sold more than 2 million copies to date. In 1990 he wrote the Art of Black and White Photography (Mitchell Beazley).

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 15 Aug 2007
By K. Archer "benjinca" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The case-study approach really does help to understand the photographer's thought processes and teaches you without realising you're being taught. An excellent book.
