Exclusive single and double meson photo- and electroproduction reactions are the largest sources of information on the spectrum and structure of nucleon resonances. The excited states of the nucleon manifest as a complex interplay between the inner core of three dressed quarks and the external meson-baryon cloud. Various N* with distinctively different structure appear as unique laboratory where many features of strong QCD can be explored. With combination of nearly 4π acceptance of the CLAS detector and continuous electron beam (Jefferson Lab, USA) it is possible to obtain physics observables of the major reaction channels in the N* excitation region. The results on the electromagnetic transition form factors of N(1440)1/2+ and N(1520)3/2- are presented.
