4 out of 5 stars Generaly good, but...   July 14, 2007
This book is very-very good to lead to portrait photographing, but when I was reading this book, I had a strange feeling, something missing...

After I have fhinised it, I discover what I miss from this book. It conatain a lot of examples portrait, but i miss a theoretical drawing from placing a modell(s) , lighting, camera, etc.

But i have to make it clear, this is very good book to laern a basic elements from this art.



4 out of 5 stars Posing..... and more   May 22, 2007

This book contains many very fine pictures. Thers's sufficient variation not only to start with, but to look at time and time again after you progress in this rewarding field of work. Bill has made it a feast for the eyes, you want to turn the page to see the next and next... but you should read also, the text explains, in nice to read language, that although we're on the subject of "Posing", it's the combination of surroundings, light, camera angle and (yes !) pose that makes the picture that stands apart. So here's a book that offers more than it says on the cover ! Look, read, learn and enjoy !


5 out of 5 stars good choice for portrait photo library   May 7, 2007

This is a great reference tool for those of us that like to "think outside of the traditional portrait photography box." Anyone like myself with desire to expand our scope of professional options will find this book worth adding to our library without redundant information.


2 out of 5 stars Not very useful   March 25, 2007

This book did not meet my expectations. The text and pictures seemed to belong to different books. Hurter writes how a person should not be posed, but most of the images in the book break those rules! I wanted to see pictures that illustrate the text. I would recommend Posing for Portrait Photography: A Head-to-Toe Guide by Jeff Smith instead. The pictures aren't quite as lovely and artistic as the ones in this book, but Smith shows you what he means.
