Photograph With Confidence is an inviting, beautifully illustrated guide to making photographs with greater feeling, clarity, and impact—without becoming overwhelmed by technical rules.
Award-winning photographer and teacher Elisabeth Haug shares the simple ideas she has gathered over a lifetime of photographing people, animals, landscapes, and everyday moments.
Through her photographs and encouraging observations, you’ll discover how to:
Notice the light, lines, patterns, and colors around you
Create a clear point of interest
Use simplicity to make photographs stronger
Anticipate action and capture the right moment
Choose emotion over technical perfection
Trust your camera—and yourself
Have more fun with photography
Photographed largely along California’s Central Coast—and featuring Elisabeth’s two exuberant rescue dogs—this is not a book about complicated settings or expensive equipment.
It is about slowing down, noticing more, and discovering how much your own way of seeing already has to offer.
Whether you photograph with an iPhone or a traditional camera, Photograph With Confidence will help you find the stories, beauty, and magic moments waiting all around you..
