In Making Photographs, photographer, educator, and author Ibarionex
Perello teaches you how to develop and implement a visual workflow
that allows you to create a repeatable process for your
photography, so you can create consistently great images. With
today's photo technology, almost anyone can pick up a camera and
create a photograph that is well-exposed and in focus. And if you
take enough pictures, you're bound to get lucky and create a few
"keepers" that impress family and friends. But eventually, you hit
a wall; you know you're relying more on luck than skill. Even
learning to control the fundamental, technical components of the
craft--shutter speed, aperture, and ISO--only takes you so far. The
real challenges remain: How can you learn to make good images
consistently? And how can you really start to "see" photographic
possibilities all around you? In Making Photographs, photographer,
educator, and author Ibarionex Perello teaches you how to face and
conquer such challenges. He shares the approach and techniques he's
honed over the last 15 years conducting workshops and teaching
photography courses to countless students of the craft. The key to
this approach, Ibarionex argues, is to develop and implement a
visual workflow that allows you to create a repeatable process for
your photography. This workflow revolves around the four "visual
draws"--light and shadow, line and shape, color, and gesture. As
Ibarionex discusses each of these visual draws, you'll learn how to
move beyond merely "looking" at the world around you to "seeing"
photographic possibilities at every turn. It is this act of seeing
that gives photography its magic--and you the vital tool you need
to improve your work. Rather than simply taking pictures, you'll
begin making photographs. Ibarionex also covers topics such as
exposure, composition, preparation, lighting, the role of emotion,
culling your images, self-assessment, and post-processing.
Alongside discussion of these themes and principles, he presents
the stories behind his photographs, which reveal his thought
process as he works through a scene; shares entries from his
personal photographic journal, relaying successes, failures,
discoveries, and breakthroughs; and includes assignments and
personal challenges to inspire and motivate you to put these
principles into immediate action in your photography.
