Discover 50 ways to create a more-is-more aesthetic in your photography, from saturated colours and layering to post-processing techniques, such as collage.
With advice on composition, balance, shape, texture and narrative, this book takes inspiration from the masters of maximalism to demonstrate how you can fill your lens with fascination through a variety of approaches.

Horst and Maisie Cousins, this book explains the key techniques that define maximalism and provides easy-to-follow advice on how to create bold, vibrant photographs that capture beauty in chaos.
