Whether you’re a seasoned veteran photographer or aspiring amateur photographer, it’s never a bad idea to refresh your memory with some guide books. After all, bringing things back to the basics can sometimes prove to jump kick those creative juices at times when you might find yourself spent. I know I need a bit of warm-up time when I’m out shooting after months of inactivity.

The team over at Light Stalking have put together an astounding collection of 46 free e-books for photographers to use as references, guides, inspiration, and more. Some of the books are straight guides, like A Photographer’s E-Guide to Making Sharp Photographs while others are made up of photo collections, like Urban Exploration Photography. There are even guides for aspiring Instagram photographers, like the aptly titled The Photographer’s Guide to Instagram. I know I’ll be taking some time out of my day to refresh my Photoshop and Lightroom skills with Adobe Photoshop vs. Adobe Lightroom.

Even if you have no interest in picking up a camera, I’m sure you’ll find some amazing photo books in the collection. The first half of the e-books can be found here, while the rest can be found here.
