Synopsis

Written by one of the world's most eminent architectural photographers, this is the definitive book on the subject. It tells design professionals as well as photographers virtually everything there is to know about the way great architectural photographs are made. Norman McGrath discloses technical, aesthetic, and business considerations and gives specific information about every area of architectural photography...from what a photographer may charge to how to photograph buildings from an airplane.

Featuring 44 interiors..domestic, work and public spaces...and 22 exterior projects, McGrath discusses his own and his clients' objectives for each shoot and explains how with attention to the smallest details he achieves unfailingly successful results. He also describes how he may use several different focal-length lenses to give his client more than one perspective form the same viewpoint.

McGrath also examines six special situations: photographing at dusk; shooting in variable or adverse weather; composing abstractions; filtering for incompatible light sources; shooting aerials; and photographing architectural models.
