Photographing beautiful people
This is a very good book and well worth owning. However, I did at times struggle to see the so called stylish design qualities the writer found in a few of the photographs. Don't get me wrong, there are many great photos in this book and the information about what to consider when posing is helpful. This is one of the better books I have read but most of the images make it look like it was for photographing girls that look like catwalk models and guys that just popped in for a wedding after finishing their underwear modeling assignment. The writer does point out how to photograph people with features that need correcting but where are the before and after photos? I need examples.
Do the top photographers only photograph beautiful people? I'd like to see some photos of average people who are different sizes taken by these photographers. I want to look at a photo and say 'Wow that photographer captured the beauty of an average person' and then look below the photo and see a footnote that tells me how he did it. I may be wrong here; maybe the ones in the book were all pretty average and the photographers created a photographic miracle but I doubt it.
For me personally, some day, I would just like to pick up a photographic book and see some photographs of beautiful average people in creative poses. Then read and learn a few tips I can then use to better capture the beautiful memories of the average person. Maybe what is needed is to get average looking models and show before and after photos of how they look better when using angles and good lighting.
I do recommend this book. I am still looking for a photographic book with really good before and after photos.
