4.0 out of 5 stars
Inspirational, but not overly informative,
By
This review is from: New Glamour (Pro-Lighting) (Paperback)
This volume of the Pro Lighting series starts with a disclaimer that a basic understanding of photography is assumed. That's definitely true for "New Glamour". The book treats a variety of glamour types - including male glamour - by providing representative images, each accompanied by a lighting diagram, exposure information, and the photographer's comments. This wealth of technical information would make this a superlative text (at least in my opinion) IF there were some treatment of why the chosen lighting scheme was chosen, relative to other possibilities. In other words, I can easily see how to reproduce the effects from the provided information, but there's no discussion of how these effects contribute to the image presented and strengthen it. In spite of this flaw, the images presented are largely quite effective and well-documented. They cover a range of glamour styles and I found myself eager to attempt this or that approach as I perused the book. Be forewarned that the images were made by professional photographers with fully equipped studios - you won't reproduce them with your Instamatic and flashcube. I did find the quality of the printing generally a bit grainier than I'd have liked, but that have been necessary to keep the cost down. As inspiration, this is a worthwhile book, but it's probably not appropriate as a first, or only, book on glamour photography.

This book is wonderful. It provides some very creative examples along with enough info for your imagination to take over. You will need a basic understanding of exposure and lighting but New Glamour can help you take the next step.
