Book Reviews of AdobePhotoshopCS2: The Art of Photographing Women

Book Review: Not just for the Glamour Photographer!
Summary: 5 Stars

When I first got Photoshop a year ago, my reaction was "now what?". I purchsed "The Photoshop CS2 Book for Digital Photographers" by Scott Kelby (also a great book) and started learning. While it helped me start understanding Camera RAW and how to use Photoshop, the term "workflow" was still a mystery to me. Then I found Kevin's CS book. I finally got it!

This book was a valuable resource in esablishing what have now become my workflow processes. Not only the processes, but Kevin teaches you how to put them into actions, and how to establish an archiving process. Huge time savings!

Since the book is about photographing women, there is a lot of information on Photoshop features that lend themselves to retouching glamour photos.

I have also attended Kevin's one-day seminar on Photoshop workflow, and while much of the information I already knew from his book, there was a lot of valuable information that I picked up, and many times "seeing" drives a point home better than "reading" ever could.

I highly recommend this book!
