Sybren Kuiper is a contemporary Dutch graphic designer who specialises in narrating stories through images and text. His ten rules below are written from the perspective of a graphic designer when working with a photographer on a photobook project.
#1. Never forget the basics: a photo book has two defining qualities: 1. it is a book; 2. it is full of photographs.
#2. When you start designing don’t listen to the photographer. Listen to the photos, then to the photographer.
