Real Answers.]]> 17416461 In Photography Q&A, Zack takes the best of the 1,000+ questions that he fielded directly from the public for his blog project. These are questions that range across all aspects of the photo industry: gear, marketing, street photography, vision, pricing, branding, models, work/life balance, technical advice, and much more. From how to "put yourself out there" and start to get jobs, to how to get paid for those jobs when the client is slow to cut the check-and everything in between-Photography Q&A expands upon the original blog project and answers many of the pressing questions that photographers are asking, but until now have not been addressed. Beyond editing and expanding the original posts, Photography Q&A also includes lots of additional material. For example, there are intermittent "Visual Intermission" sections, where Zack discusses individual images, as well as worksheets on topics such as pricing and costs that accompany the Q&A text and truly help the reader know their numbers.
With all this material, and with insightful, honest answers that come straight from Zack's experience as a photographer who has seen it all (or at least a lot of it) and a voice that is simultaneously irreverent, candid, and earnest, Photography Q&A is a truly helpful resource for any photographer looking for the real answers to the real questions in the industry today.]]>

Ansel Adams: An Autobiography 327012



"No lover of Ansel Adams' photographs can afford to miss this book." - Wallace Stegner



In this bestselling autobiography, completed shortly before his death in 1984, Ansel Adams looks back at his legendary six-decade career as a conservationist, teacher, musician, and, above all, photographer.
Illustrated with eight pages of Adams' gorgeous black-and-white photographs, this book brings readers behind the images into the stories and circumstances of their creation. Written with characteristic warmth, vigor, and wit, this fascinating account brings to life the infectious enthusiasms, fervent battles, and bountiful friendships of a truly American original.




"A warm, discursive, and salty document." - New Yorker]]>
