5 out of 5 stars finally i know   May 20, 2007
 12 out of 12 found this review helpful

I recommend this book to anyone who has somehow, in any way, to do with photography. The way the author gets intimate with the photographers and curators etc. is really captivating and different to anything I've read so far. The author, Anne-Celine Jaeger, knows a lot of details about the photographers, editors, gallery owners etc. and how to get even more fruity details out of them. Whether you want to know about what lighting Mary Ellen Mark uses in her pictures or whether William Eggleston had someone to talk to about his work when he first started doing pics (that's more my thing), you'll find it here. My favourite section is the one on newcomers in photography, because it shows how they find their own technique and how they came through. It gives people like me, who are still unseen and struggling and doubting their own work some hope. I also always wondered how to make it into New York Times Magazine, now I know...


5 out of 5 stars Into the mind of a photographer   May 12, 2007

Image Makers, Image Takers contains all the questions I've always wanted to ask to photographers: influence, inspiration, technique, career path etc. It also includes some other aspects of the business (curators, picture editors...) which are usually ignored. It is very accessible and informative and it is a priceless insight into a photographer's mind. A fantastic guide to aspiring photographers, why wait so long to publish it!!!!!
