Nude & Glamour Photography

Good photography requires a variety of skills, some more important in one field than another. But nude and glamour photography can involve every aspect of photography and demands all the skills required across the spectrum: an awareness of atmosphere, a good sense of composition, ability to respond quickly to situations and nuances of expression plus a strong sense of colour and design.
The appeal of a beautiful woman and the qualities of sensuality and sexual attraction are by no means purely visual. A successful photograph must find a way of translating these often intangible elements into visual terms.
Michael Busselle’s Nude and Glamour Photography is a comprehensive guide to success in all aspects of the art. There are 150 colour and 250 black-and-white photographs with 100 explanatory diagrams to illustrate the techniques described in the book. It gives methods and professional tips for setting up a session in the studio or on location. There is a chapter on the equipment and accessories needed and advice on which techniques to employ to get the best results.
With a section on the masters of the art and special projects to help you evoke specific themes and effects, this book is an invaluable reference work for aspiring photographers.
