This review is from: The Best of Teen and Senior Portrait Photography: Techniques and Images from the Pros (Masters Series) (Paperback)
The best overall book out there on the subject! Not just one photographer's point of view, draws from the best names in the field. Great for someone just getting into the field of seniors or someone with years of experience.

This review is from: The Best of Teen and Senior Portrait Photography: Techniques and Images from the Pros (Masters Series) (Paperback)
I ordered this book with the hopes of expanding my photography from wedding and family/children portrait work to do senior work. And this book provides great deatils about getting into this line of work. But it does much more. It covers details for all types of portrait work to fine tune your photography with chapters on proper posing, lighting and much more. Whether you are just starting or have been in the business for a while you will benefit if you read and apply the information within. Great Job!!!
