Inside you will find tips for better shooting and editing, creative ways to start new projects, games and activities, as well as insights into the practices of those responsible for some of the most iconic photos—such as John Baldessari, Tina Barney, Philip-Lorca diCorcia, Jim Goldberg, Miranda July, Susan Meiselas, Stephen Shore, Alec Soth, Tim Walker, and others.
