5 Photography Books That'll Make You a Better Photographer

My summer reading list is all photography books - and I haven't cracked a single one yet. So instead of pretending I'm an expert on them, I'm doing this differently: here are the five I've chosen to read this summer, why each one made the cut, and a bonus sixth book that's a little different. None of these are the most famous titles out there. I picked them because I think they'll make us better, more creative photographers - and because they're easy, enjoyable reads whether you're on the beach or just relaxing at home. Read along with me.
