Photography in children’s books
“Over the past two decades, publishers have multiplied albums that incorporate photography, which has become ubiquitous in everyday life. We are witnessing a creative bubbling that reveals the potential offered by photography in children’s books. More inventive than ever, they surprise with their audacity and richness. A photographic album, by showing, telling, staging, is an exciting work in the hands of a child. Look at the world by an artist sensitive to light, to framing, to color, to the moment… whether it is fleeting or a moment of eternity”.
Excerpt from the preface by Michel Defourny for the book “150 years of photoliterature for children” by Laurence Le Guen (2022) published by MeMo.
We are proud to have our work featured in this wonderful anthology of photoliterature for children by Laurence Le Guen.
