About this item

Bestselling author/photographer Chris Orwig offers 30 photographic exercises to renew your passion for capturing the people in your world. This is not a traditional portrait photography book.

With titles like: Be Quiet, Turn the Camera Around and the Fabric of Family, each of the 30 exercises encourages you to have fun and experiment at your own pace. With step-by-step instructions and using natural light, you will explore everything from street, lifestyle, candid and environmental shots. The projects are small artistic endeavors meant to change how you see and the pictures that you make. All that's required is a camera, an intrepid attitude, curiosity and some imagination.
