Format:Paperback
There is much useful information to someone learning how to photograph nudes. If it had sufficiently covered nudes in natural light, it would have deserved 4 stars. Although there is much useful information in this book, there are also some bad ideas, possibly explaining why many of the photos are mediocre or poor. The challenge someone may have is in determining what information to discount.

After reading I am now more knowledgable on the subject but it seems to not fully explain the subject. If the old saying,"the proof is in the product" is true than this book lacks some proofo because some of the pictures are lackluster but for beginners it is a good book, but for photography i wouldn't rate as highly.
Format:Paperback
If your goal is to produce stunning and tasteful images of the human form, than this is the book for you. Many benefits are provided by this book whether you are new to the subject or not. To name a few are finding and preparing models, shooting locations and settings, props, equipment and lighting suggestions. A valuable aid with good context.

It is a waste of trees
Published on December 8, 1999
Very informative but leaves some information out.
The book is very good but the authors have stressed the artist nude which is good as opposed to the erotic of raunch of pornography. Read more

Good advice, bad photographs.
This book has some good information. The authors seem to be knowledgable about the technical side of photography, but don't have the eye for it.
