Ansel Adams

Bulfinch, 1995

The FIRST BOOK YOU SHOULD READ!

Inspirations

Preston Bailey

Bulfinch, 2006

Beautiful pictures
I bought this book so I can find ideas for my wedding decoration, it has great and beautiful pictures, but obviously it's impossible to try to imitate Preston Bailey's ideas. I do recommend this book. You can use it afterwards for a coffee table book.

Examples: The Making of 40 Photographs

Ansel Adams

Bulfinch, 1989

A charming insight into the soul of a great photographer
There are many great books about photography, of which this is just one, but there are relatively few books about how to be a great photographer. On the latter topic this book is exceptional. Ansel Adams was clearly both a gentleman and a gentle man, who lived to ...
