Inhaltsangabe

Based on the idea that it's not what a picture looks like but what it feels like that makes it good, this is a book that manages to be both practical and inspiring. Organised around six key ideas (Shoot the Moment; See the Light; Feel the Rhythm, and so on), it forces readers to see, not just shoot - and it will do it by walking them through the ideas, the techniques and then the projects, all laid out in graphic, beautiful, instructive way: Read about the technique, see it in practice in one of Lange's photos, and then learn how to replicate it yourself. Underneath it all lies Lange's real message: 'The more you appreciate how special each moment is, and see how you can capture its meaning and its mysteries, the better your pictures will be. The moment you appreciate how special it is that you're all together on the beach, or at a two-year-olds birthday party, or that light is pouring through your bedroom onto the bed where your wife is resting is the point at which your photograph becomes a testament to your way of seeing the world'.

The how-tos in this volume are not so much technical as philosophical, urging photographers to celebrate life--not just document it--through their photos. . . . In addition to its photography application, this book might also provide a good introduction for any budding human being (or photographer) to the ways in which love brings people together." -BookPage "Featuring practical wisdom for all skill levels, the book uses [Lange's] stunning photos to demonstrate points about lighting, framing, and, most important, how to train yourself to shoot the moment, not the subject." --Southern Living "[The book's] common thread is helping the people behind the camera accomplish the ultimate goal behind all the button-pushing: depicting the world more richly." -Chicago Tribune
