Learn how to tell stories through photo books step by step
A photo book is not a family photo album or a photography book. In addition to photographs, it has a visual narrative that seeks to tell a story to the public through images. Together, the structure, the design, and the photographs evoke a feeling intended by the photographer and editor, resulting in a work of art.
Photographer and photo book editor Musuk Nolte is a benchmark in the world of photo books. Through his publishing house, KWY, he has edited more than 15 publications by Rodrigo Abd, Antoine d'Agata, Billy Hare, and Juanita Escobar. In this online course, he teaches you how to self-publish your photo book, with emphasis on the creative aspects, from conceptualization to production, together with one of the most current references in publishing and photography.
