I would like to say thanks for this. I found this by searching for some info on the history of forensic photography and I used the website which Ernie Hamm provided and I must say, it was a wonderful start for my project. I am taking a crime scene invesigator degree and my class is crime scene photography. Thanks once again. | ||

I happened to be looking over 'Photographic Evidence', Charles C. Scott, Vernon Law Book Company, 1942, and there is the following: "The American Appellate court cases declaring that photographs are admissible in evidence when relevant and when properly verified date back to 1859...". This doesn't specifically address 'forensic photography', but 'legal photography', but crime scene photography can not be far away. | ||

This was posted on another inquiry: You can link to redwop.com, the website of Lightning Powder Company, and bring up Issue 74 of 'Minutiae'. This issue has information about the use of photographic documentation and the fingerprint camera. | ||

Please could you recommend any texts, journals, websites or articles on the history of forensic photography, that also regard more recent years than 1948? It would be a great help with my dissartation. Thanks | ||

Locate a copy of the book, "Photography in Law Enforcement", Eastman Kodak Company, 1948. It has an extensive bibliography section of articles in the various areas in which photography is used in forensics, as well as early books on the subject. If you contact Kodak, perhaps they can provide the information. | ||

Could somebody point to me where I could find an article or whatever regarding the history of forensic photography? |
