Rick Sammon’s Creative Visualization for Photographers
A proven methodology for turning snapshots
into extraordinary shots.
The difference between seeing and looking is essential—much like the difference, in music, between hearing and listening. In Creative Visualization, master photographer and photo educator Rick Sammon presents his proven methodology for creative digital photography. His signature inspiring and motivating approach opens creative avenues for photographers in a variety of genres.
With easy-to-follow examples, including visual examples of "photo failures" side-by-side with successful ones, Sammon shows you how simple changes—with visualization, composition, post-processing, and more—can mean the difference between a snapshot and a great shot. This book, illustrated with more than 300 of Rick’s photographs, includes invaluable information about exposure, composition, subject choice, lighting, mood, and depth.
“HEY RICK. What’s your f-stop?” That is the question I get asked most on my photo workshops. I reply, with a smile, “My friend. What is your creative vision?” That’s the much more important question.
