In knowing that I am to create a photo book that included interviews I had to do some research into existing books:
Book 1: Image makers' image takers.. the essential guide to photography by those in the know.
Jaeger, A.
2007
London: Thames and Hudson
Example 1: Rankin-
How did you get into photography?
I was studying accountancy at polytechnic and ended up with loads of students in my halls of residents. By third term, i realised accountancy wasn't really my thing. So i took a year off and lived with my parents, which was hard to do. my friend and i started taking pictures together on a 35mm richo. I really enjoyed taking pictures and found i had a talent for it. For a year i did menial jobs like cleaning to pay for my obsession id work during the day, shoot on the weekend and process and print all night in my mates darkroom in the attic.
other questions included:
what was your first big break?
what goes through your mind when you're framing a shot?
how important are you personal projects to you?
where do you get your inspiration?
format -theres a short introduction at the beginning
- quote on every page that doesn't include an image that takes up 80% of the page.
- under the images it names the photographer the title of the image, when it was taken and what series it is from.
