The use of images, particularly photography, has been steadily gaining popularity in academia, but there has not yet been a book that deals with the act and process of photo-taking in the field. Drawing upon 21 years of photographic experience and sociological research, Terence Heng’s immersive and narrative style will:
- introduce photography as a qualitative method;
- discuss the intricacies of, challenges in and opportunities for using a camera in the field;
- explore common themes and topics in social science research, including photographing rituals, space, people and objects;
- advise on navigating the always evolving technological landscapes of traditional, digital and mobile photography.
