This books focuses on having fun and getting good good results more than the business end of things, although it does cover some of that. An easy read with simple suggestions that anyone can understand and put right to use.

Great resource, how-to guide for glamour photography. Well written by someone who clearly enjoys his art. Lots of good advice on everything from equipment to finding models, technical info to posing, makeup and wardrobe to retouching.
I've read and relied on many of Joe's previous books to improve my photography and Glamour Photography is no exception. He writes in a down-to-earth way that's easy to comprehend and follow. The tips and tricks he shares help in all of the areas mentioned above.
Bottom line - any book written by Joe Farace will help photographers improve their imagery, learn and grow their photographic skills.
