2.0 out of 5 stars
Fluff,
By Dan Derby "W W W . D A N D E R B Y . COM" (North Hampton, New Hampshire USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Lighting for Interiors: Photography (Paperback)
Very light weight, shallow coverage of a complex and interesting (for architectural photographers) subject. The lighting diagrams are useful but in general the book does not provide much information or insight into the practice. This is a coffee table book, sort of.If you are interested in this corner of the photography world, try to find a used copy of Norman McGrath's now out of print "Photographing Buildings Inside and Out". Norman is one of the grand masters of the craft and his book is the real thing, chock full of information. If you are just starting out, I recommend Eric Roth's new book "Interior Photography: Lighting and Other Professioinal Techniques with Style". Eric is a very successful Boston based architect/interiors photographer who writes clearly and is right on the mark about the basics of the business and the craft.

Not a real how to book,
By
This review is from: Lighting for Interiors: Photography (Paperback)
This book has some good interior photos, but the how to section is very sparse.One nice idea in the book is that every photo has a lighting diagram along with it to show you how the result was achieved. Unfortunately the diagrams are not always very specific. For instance how was the scene metered, what was the type of grid used, what was the output required. In other words not a lot of exacting detail. Also it would be nice to see a before and after shot, but these are pictures by some very talented photographers that were not shot for teaching, but for clients. It has no information at all on general lighting principles, special techniques, or anything else of real value.
