Book Description

Design Fundamentals May 1998
The ability to work effectively with photographs is a vital skill for designers working on magazines, books, brochures, posters and packaging. This book covers every aspect of the graphic designer's work with photographs, showing how techniques including cropping and photo-treatments can transform a mediocre photograph into an arresting image. The reader is also shown how effects can be eye-catching but also easily overdone. Designers are often confronted with a choice of images and the book seeks to guide the designer to the right choice.

4.0 out of 5 stars Designing with Photographs, June 10, 2000
This review is from: Designing with Photographs (Design Fundamentals) (Paperback)
This book will show the image spectrum (literal-evocative). As designer, I am looking for a book that can explain how can we do art direction for photographic assignment so we'll speak the same language. So this book is very useful for designer as well as photographer.

Other topic that I found very useful is the explanation about how can we enhance the picture speak through combination of color, composition, cropping, typography and other elements.

I also recommend to read Visual Language (also by Peter Bonnici). It is the best and the only book on Visual Language.
