The School of Photography: Beginner's Guide

The ultimate introduction to photographic practice

Designers seek moments of creative bliss when everything aligns, stress dissolves, and decisions flow effortlessly. These 'in the zone' experiences keep creatives inspired. This book uncovers the dynamic nature of the design process, shedding light on the various modes of thinking that shape creative work.The design process is often taught through a linear framework: define the problem, do the research, generate ideas, prototype, test, and refine. This structure offers a shared language across disciplines-from architecture to fashion design-providing a roadmap for clarity and progress. However, as any practicing designer knows, the real process is far more fluid. With time and experience, designers learn to embrace the nonlinear nature of their work. Iteration becomes second nature, and space is made for unexpected, creative leaps-spontaneous breakthroughs where new connections emerge. These moments arise from the intersection of conscious and unconscious thought, resulting in surprising and powerful ideas. Within this intersection, the 'beautiful mess' of the designer's natural state emerges. This mess isn't disorder-it's the dynamic interplay between structured methods and spontaneous inspiration, revealing the fascinating tangle of creative thinking. This book celebrates that vibrant, messy process. Through rich photography of everyday studios and thoughtful conversations with artists, designers, and makers from across disciplines, it offers an intimate glimpse into how ideas are formed and refined. Whether you're a student, an emerging creative, or an experienced practitioner, this book invites you to recognize-and embrace-the unique nature of your own design journey, and find inspiration in the glorious chaos of making.

History in 15

Photographs are more than just illustrations of a moment in time, they offer a powerful way to interpret and understand the past like no other historical source can. U.S. History in 15 Photographs introduces this power through 15 iconic and lesser-known photographs representing key eras in American History. Taking the reader from Reconstruction and Westward Expansion, to the Roaring Twenties and the World Wars, right up to Modern American Culture, it offers a refreshing, visual account of American history. This volume reorients photography as a major source for understanding the past, expanding not only the stories that we tell, but the way we tell them. Teaching students how to understand, contextualize, and interpret historic photography, U.S. History in 15 Photographs centers diverse stories about the American experience by exploring topics around race, class, gender, disability, the environment, and social justice. The scholars who contributed to this volume show that photographs are more just illustrations from the past, but foundational sources with surprising revelations about the past.

A beautifully arresting photographic record of North American coaling towers, which once fueled steam locomotives and powered the country. A fine art photography must-have for railroad enthusiasts and anyone interested in the industrial golden era. In 1906, America commenced a major railroad modernization project, driven by massive industrial era investment and development. A lasting symbol of this time in history remains today: the imposing coaling towers that pepper the country and which once held the coal that powered steam locomotives. Over the course of five years and 20,000 miles, photographer Jeff Brouws documented these towers. Silent Monoliths tells their story. The towers, built of concrete, a modern material with historical roots traceable to the Roman aqueducts, were constructed to replace aging (and less fire-retardant and less efficient) wooden coaling wharves and chutes. As the railroads transitioned from steam to diesel in the late 1940s and throughout the 1950s, most of these coaling towers slipped into obsolescence—some demolished, others “retired-in-place” and left standing. As a result of the latter, many examples of these sculptural, architectonic remnants of industrial brawn stand in silence across North America—from Flomaton, Alabama, to the northernmost reaches of Ontario, Canada; as far west as Glenns Ferry, Idaho, to the eastern seaboard in New Haven, Connecticut. Essays from industrial and railroad historian John Hankey and art historian Marcella Hackbardt illuminate the significance of these otherworldly relics. In the spirit of Hilla and Bernd Becher, Brouws’ photographic portfolio presents over 105 examples of these austere monoliths, conveying their unique place in cultural history.

Experience the wild beauty of birds around the Bay.Having explored San Francisco neighborhoods in three celebrated books, Dick Evans turns here to the avian species that call the Bay Area home. With his photographer's eye, he finds art and drama in the lives of birds, from the smallest sparrows to long-legged Great Blue Herons. He captures the pockets of wilderness in our cities that make the area a birder's paradise: from a marsh full of endangered birds wading in the reeds near the Oakland Airport to the isolated refuge of the Farallon Islands, home to a quarter-million seabirds and a handful of visiting scientists; from Crissy Field, flocked with egrets, to the pasturelands birds share with cattle. His vibrant images are interspersed with text by Hannah Hindley that weaves us more deeply into relationship with our avian neighbors, introducing readers to the natural history of the region, to themes of interdependence and ecology, and to the evolving challenges for birds in a densely settled urban environment. At the heart of these images and stories is love for the living descendants of dinosaurs as they soar and parade, and awe at their ephemerality and endurance. Evans's photos highlight the wonder of a world on the wing and the rich biodiversity of Bay Area birds.
