Reviews
With 30 years as an editor and writer for the photo industry under my belt, I am still unable to paint a picture with words the way Jim Cornfield does. Jim's prose pulls you in and keeps you gleefully engaged while he skillfully slips in all the complicated technical elements of his craft...eloquently and masterfully. -Jacqueline Tobin, Editor-in-Chief of Rangefinder Magazine Jim Cornfield is the rare combination of a superb photographer and a lively, compelling writer. He brings intelligence and originality to his photographs and to every subject he's covered in his books and hundreds of magazine articles. -Ellen Boughn, Author of Microstock Money Shots; Former Executive Editor of Corbis Images; Founder of After-Image Photo Agency Jim is one of the very few people I know in the communications field who's both excellent photographer and gifted writer...he has a seasoned reporter's eye for detail and ear for language, and the vocabulary to weave them seamlessly into a story. Along with all that, you get his finely tuned creative sensibility-a trait that the best photographers and graphic artists and writers need in abundance. -Chris Barnett, Journalist and Author; Founder & Principal of Barnett Strategies A person like Jim Cornfield comes along only once in a great while. He is a fine photographer and a great writer, with many years of professional experience; His knowledge about the craft and science of professional photography is encyclopedic. -Bill Hurter, Author and Photographer; Former Editor-in-Chief of Petersen's PHOTOgraphic, Rangefinder Magazine and AfterCapture Magazine
