Photo Adventures is an activity book to show children some tips on how to use a smartphone camera to trick reality pictures into creative and fun images. With a playful approach and the use of some props from home, photographer Jan von Holleben gives fun ideas to try for the whole family, from flying like a superhero by turning the ground into the sky; create a ‘brain portrait’ of what’s hiding in their heads by re-photographing an existing photo; put their parents up a pole using tricks of perspective; devise an impossible pinball machine by combining some junk with a tight picture crop; and transform siblings into one-eyed, three-legged monsters with only a mirror and a sharp camera angle!
Berlin based photographer, Jan von Holleben has illustrated over ten books for children and commercial clients include Die Zeit, Der Spiegel, Dazed & Confused, Creative Review and The Face.
Munich based photographer, Monte Packham is also a writer and the author of ABC Photography.
