Books by Chris Gatcum

Get the answers to the questions that are on every photographer's mind, as well as those they haven't thought of yetHow do we learn? We learn by asking questions. But what if we don't know what questions we should be asking? Thanks to the digital revolution, photography has never been so popular, and whether you shoot on a phone or a top-spec DSLR or CSC camera, the urge to improve is relentless. In this book, author Chris Gatcum asks the questions that every photographer will have in mind at some point in their image-making journey, and then answers them in a clear, concise, straightforward and inspirational manner. Laid out in intuitive sections, this book tackles the questions that are on every photographer's mind, as well as those that they haven't thought of yet. And with a clear progression through each chapter, from the simple to more complex, the book asks - and answers - questions to satisfy the complete novice as well as the advanced practitioner.
