Architectural Photography Micheal Harris

Product description

The Subject matter of the architectural photographer is the structure of buildingsssss both inside and out, for which there is a wide variety of demands. As a perfectionist art form, architectrural photograpy is a methodical process demanding patience and clinical precision from its practitioners, combined with an experienced understanding of the potential and effects of natural light.

Architectural Photography approaches the subject from the perspective of the architect, including a brief history of architecture and a glossary of architectural terminology. Having outlined the underlying theories and applications of camera movements, filters, compositon and light (both natural and photographic), it takes you off on assignment. A step- by step approach guides you through the shooting sequence, and two chapters are devoted to creative possibilities and practical solutions totypical problems.

The conclusion of the book is an analysis of the results of ten successful published assignments, examining them in terms of both photography an graphic design.
