Title: Great Portrait photography book
Review: Great book for begining portrait photographers or pro that need more ideas. I also have Monte Zuckers portrait book and I think this book is even better.He starts out explaining the basic equipment you need for portraits. Cameras, lens, lights, and light modifiers. Then explains basic posing from the how to place the feet for good support to the tilt of the head. From the best clothes to trouble shooting problems like what to do with eyeglasses, double chins, overweight and a bald head. The book has many pages on lighting, 45 degree lighting with 4 lights, narrow and broad lighting, to split lighting and butterfly lighting.I also recommend "Master Posing Guide for Portrait Photography" by J.D. Wacker. With these two books you have a good understanding of posing and lighting. Neither book is a complete study in portraiture but you have a great start.
