Shooting Yourself / Selfies
By Haje Jan Kamps - Published on Ilex Photo (2013)
In the age of social networking, a self-portrait will be the most important photo you ever take. This book will show you how to create images of yourself that capture your personality and express your creativity or just make you look hot! Shooting Yourself isn’t a technical book, but roams in search of inspiration for great self-portrait photos.
A series of themed chapters (A Touch of Innocence, Turning the Drama to Eleven and Getting Saucy for instance) introduce a world of fresh, talented shooters whose great work depends on original ideas, not expensive equipment.
The book then goes on to give you practical advice on location shooting, action shooting and photo-compositing plus toy cameras, and successful sexting (ooh!). Packed with fresh imagery, practical tips and accessible introductions to the principles of portrait photography, Shooting Yourself is a unique title in the category, and is certain to delight a new generation of digital photographers.
Published in the UK as Shooting Yourself. Published in the US as Selfies.
