## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Very good, but missing some needed illustrations and counter examples.
  

*by J***G on Reviewed in the United States on July 22, 2013*

Overall, this is a great help to someone who needs a good grounding in posing for portrait photography. I think I got my money's worth out of it. I particularly appreciated his discussion about expressions. He has some good points in there.I'm not sure why the title specifies it's just for digital photographers. I think everything in it is useful to film shooters, too.It has two shortcomings as I saw it.First, it needs more supporting images to go with the verbal description. Some labelled arrows to the sample images pointing out specifically what is being addressed and how would be great! There are a few examples of "bad" posing to illustrate some of the basic points at the beginning, but as the book went on, it seemed fewer and fewer were shown.Second, there are times, especially in the leg posing section, where the author decided to use a verbal description of how to pose a foot or leg where an illustration of some kind is really necessary. The most poignant example is when he refers to the "front foot". Front with respect to WHAT? Does he mean closer to the camera? Does he mean it is further in front of the subject? Doesn't that depend on how the subject decides to place their feet before you pose them? Even a review of the sample images didn't yield much evidence. I gave up trying to figure it out. Here, a picture would truly be worth 1000 words.Overall, though, a good book of basics; and certainly enough to get one started.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Good beginner book.
  

*by C***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2011*

Being a beginner at portrait photography this was a good book to start with, the author went into good detail about body flow and placement.  I wish there were more "Do This" "Not This" photos to demonstate the value of proper posing.  I was really interested in small group photography (eg. mom, dad & kids, child/children with pet) and there was only one tiny section devoted to this which was a bummer for me.  Putting that aside it is written very simply and easy to understand.  I would recommend this to others.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Absolutely Wonderful
  

*by A***. on Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2013*

This book is a must have for anyone doing any kind of photography!!!  It contains entertaining stories that explain why you must do this or not do this.  It explains how to pose the individual parts of the body and why.  An example of things it suggesgts is to turn the body at an angle to the camera because if you put a person perfectly facing the camera, it shows the body at it's largest.  It also explains what you must not do when posing someone.  He calls it the deadly sins of posing.  It has great visual examples of poses for you to go by.  It is mostly for senior photography, but if you cannot pose one person successfully, I don't recommend trying to pose more than one person.  The only type of photography that this doesn't go into depth on is wedding photography.  And I still managed to get some great shots of my brother-in-law's wedding from the tips and suggestions from this book!
