Book Reviews of The Portrait Photographer's Guide to Posing
Book Review: Great Images
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is a collection of some of the finest professional photography that I have seen in any book. There are many creative posing ideas throughout and the author provides some solid information on the art of portraiture.
I would have given this book 5 stars if the author had asked each individual photographer why he posed his/her subject the way that they did. I think that this insight would be valuable to any photographer.
Book Review: Very informative
Summary: 4 Stars
The book was very informative. It teaches you general rules for posing people, and actually contains quite a few tips that you would normally feel awkward doing. However, I tried some and they actually look pretty natural and good. Recommended if you haven't a clue about posing people, I don't know how useful it would be for photographers that have been posing people for a long time.Book Review: Portrait Photographer's Guide to Posing
Summary: 4 Stars
This book had wonderful photos and helpful text.
However, while the photos were all really great, they tended to be breaking the rules that were being described in the text. As a professional or serious amature photographer one might understand how to follow the rules. However, as a beginning photographer I would really like to see photos that follow the rules being described.
Book Review: Great book for beginning modesl, and the beginning model photographer
Summary: 4 Stars
Ok, the title of this review says it all. If you are getting into modeling and/or model photography, this book is great. Provides good information on corrective posing, how to effectively pose just about any body type, and more.
Models and photographers who have been doing this for a long time, however, will not really find this book useful.
Book Review: nice, very nice
Summary: 4 Stars
I would recommend this book to every photographer, beginner or a bit more advanced. the examples are very well explained. a big help in learning about posing etc... I would NOT buy this book at amazon, because I had to pay 10 euro custom taxes, wich is more than 30%!
