Glamour photography June 29, 2010 capitain Its a good book,a lot of good info.It could use more pics showing what he is talking about.
Now this is how you create a book on photography March 19, 2010 J. Price (Ontario, CA) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I am a motivated amateur photographer and I really appreciate the way Rolando sets the subject forth.
There is a plethora of well diagramed examples and pictures of the various subjects he covers. Sure, there must be written commentary but it supports the examples rather than tries to carry the material all by itself.
As I didn't know the basics of posing, shot design and composition in this genre, this work provides that. From those very clear examples I have been able to work obliquely and create new work.
Of course the models and pictures are gorgeous and very easy on the eyes.
I highly recommend this work for those like myself: You don't know. You understand you don't know. But want to know.
Great book, great techniques! March 18, 2010 Dustin Face (Michigan, USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
If you are an experienced model photographer obviously this book isn't for you. But, for me... someone who has only been doing this for a couple of years the experience from this author has given me a greater potential. I purchased this book in hopes to at least gather a couple new techniques and ways to pose my models and it does just that. Great book, thanks for the information!
Needs better text February 3, 2010 Frank Blau (Seattle, WA) 0 out of 4 found this review helpful
The content of this book is great, but the USEFUL caption text that accompanies each picture (that gives the settings etc...) is embedded in the graphic at such a small size that it is unreadable on the Kindle.
Get this one in print, not on the Kindle, if you are the least bit interested in how he sets up shots.
Excellent book Rolando shares allot of valuable informaiton! August 30, 2009 A. Freedman (Reston, VA) This is an excellent book that will help you with posing models for Glamour photography. Glamour is a style of it's own, and learning to pose a model, come up with creative shot ideas, and the ability to manage a shoot are all part of this book. Rolando Gomez shares real world techniques and information. You will kep this book as a tool for future reference. I highly recommend this book.
