Looking and Seeing. And Why in Photography They Are Not the Same

«Looking and seeing. And why in photography they are not the same» — this is an honest, inspiring conversation by a professional photographer about how to find your voice in a world of endless images. Anna Aristova's photographs participated in the RUS PRESS PHOTO competition in Moscow and were featured at the Moscow International Biennale of Contemporary Art, as well as published in magazines such as GQ, OK!, FLACON. Through her camera lens are actors, children, families, brands, and those fleeting emotions that become eternal. In this book, she showcases her soul-stirring shots and for the first time opens the backstage of her profession: from finding her own style and preparing for a shoot to building a team, working with real people, and finding her 'own' color. This collection includes interviews with popular photographers, quotes from outstanding masters like Susan Sontag and Annie Leibovitz, as well as lists of their works for inspiration. Each chapter is a step towards photography as a true art form, where it is important not only to shoot but also to see. A beautiful edition with quality images that will leave no one indifferent and help every photographer find their inspiration for creativity.
