FAQs for models January 17, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Like the previous reviewer I fail to see where the photographer part comes in apart from the model discussion part and the worked examples.
It is far more for models or agents than photographers. I acknowledge that there seems to be an ethos of photographers also 'managing' models in the US, as per the options on probably the most famous Model site. It just seemed the book was mainly that sort of information and not much use regarding how and what to shoot.
Now I know that a Head and shoulder shot, a full length shot form the basis of a portfolio but what I had been hoping for was guidance on what styles of headshot might prove advantageous to a model in certain situations, and therefore what type of head shots to do for a model.
The name of this book is wrong. September 25, 2007 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
This book should really be called Professional Model Portfolios: A Step-by-step Guide for MODELS. I still really don't know what to make of it.
I was expecting information about how who to put together a model portfolio from start to finish from a photographic perspective. For example I don't need instructions on how to take measurements of a model (I kid you not.)
Sure it contains a limited amount of information useful for photographers but a model will find it much more relevant. There is a whole chapter dedicated to answering questions frequently asked by models. How about answering my questions - i.e. the photographers!
This is certainly not a step by step guide for photographers and was a dissapointing purchase.
