Customer Reviews
Outstanding book
Chelsea and Tony have produced a cracker of a book. The made for iPad version is particularly brilliant as all the photos and videos are built in.
The tutorials take you through every step. Chelsea and Tony are obviously passionate about photography and their experience and depth of knowledge is amazing.
Being knowledgeable is no good if you are unable to pass that information on in an easy to understand manner. Here the dynamic duo are the very best I've come across and, believe me, I've read a lot of stuff on photography and never picked up the things they teach in this book.
Can't recommend this book highly enough. Great job!
Undoubtedly the best book for beginners
I can't express how lucky I am I found this book on Tony's YouTube channel. 'How to create stunning photography' covers all I'd always looked for! Packed with plenty of practical tips gives you a good introduction to conscious & fully thought-through photography.
Love it!
Superb material
This is a super book, smartly written and with plenty of video and picture examples of how and why scenarios. Definitely now my favourite photo book by a country mile. His video description of RAW vs JPEG was worth the asking price alone. Every budding and experienced photog should have a copy.
