The discerning reader cannot help but come away inspired--and excited--to pick up a camera and go out to see what they can find.

edition.
Product Description
Here is the first systematic attempt - for beginners, students and professionals alike - to find out how photographers of world stature approach their work, and what it is that makes them succeed. Unlike any other photography book to date, it uses in-depth interviews of established photographers from the fields of fashion, art, portraiture and documentary photography, as well as the new generation, but also of picture editors, curators and art book publishers in order to find out what they look for when choosing an image. Who are the makers and who are the takers? Readers can judge for themselves.

Only half-way through and in Love with this Book!, Nov 12 2008
By Benjamin Reed - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Image Makers Image Takers (Paperback)
A great combination of interviews, insights, and images. Not technical information, just the thoughts of successful photographers, and their images.My only complaint is that not ever image discussed in the interviews is in the book - looking them up online can be distracting to the flow of the book.

My Favorite Book...Ever, Jan 8 2008
By S. C. Amoruso - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Image Makers Image Takers (Paperback)
I love it. Wonderful, inspiring interviews with some of the best photographers alive today. Especially interesting are the interviews with Alec Soth and Anton Corbijn. You will not regret purchasing this, I just wish I had read it sooner! Beautifully put together and a great value.
Listmania!
