 LIghting for portrait photography October 24, 2008
I first saw this book in Waterstones, and what a book it is, it has excellent illustrations of the lighting used in the many photos it portrays. It was worth the asking price in Waterstone, but at the price Amazon are charging it is an excellent bargain.
It doesnt just show artificial lighting, it also shows photos with very basic lighting techniques, using windows and reflectors etc, Although it does use some very complex lightning techniques later in the book. In many of the photos it also describes lens used, and the camera settings used to achieve the effect.

Good book to read, could have a bit more information and what not. but worth the money to add to your collection.
Very helpful July 10, 2008
Very well laid out book with good diagrams and illustrations explaining different styles and layouts.
Highly recommended.
Good book if you're more advanced May 12, 2008
The author is obviously a real pro.
He does give details of the techniques and lighting positions employed in the VERY creative photographs he displays.
However, I prefer other books directed at amateurs which teach a slightly lower level of creative photography together with longer and more understandable explanations and from which an amateur like me would probably benefit more.
