Architectural photographer Gerry Kopelow created this guide on how to take high-quality photographs for architects, interior designers, engineers, heritage preservers, and professional photographers. The first half of the book starts with the basics, discussing topics such as photographing architectural models and drawings, technical considerations involving cameras, films, and lighting, and preparing materials for publication. This expanded edition also contains 13 new chapters that focus on more advanced topics, including special cameras and lenses, the creative use of filters, digital imaging and digital image manipulation, working on location, copyrights, contracts, and other business considerations. It also includes hundreds of color and black-and-white photographic examples. This practical how-to book is the definitive title on the subject.

An exceptionally realistic treatise on the theory and practice of architectural photography. Supplying adequate technical information for beginners, advanced amateurs, and even professional photographers experienced in other specialties, the primary focus of How to Photograph is on the aesthetic and intellectual elements of the medium....Kopelow packs this work with a wealth of information for virtually everyone in the architectural profession. -- Tom Fuller, Inland Architect

The book I should have written. -- Larry Thall, Photo Electronic Imaging
