Book Description

0966039505 978-0966039504 1999 1ST
KIM TAYLOR REECE admires women. The joy and energy they bring to his work is something he has been cultivating for many years. Trained in the traditional disciplines of fine art, Reece became awed by the contemporary art of photography while trying to capture the subtleties of hula. He found the images capture in photograph could not be duplicated, with the same intensity, through any other medium.

This book brings together Reece's ventures in black and white and his talent in making visions become reality. His admiration for women has taken form in this collection of images. Wahine, is a celebration for and about women. A beautiful statement to women.

5.0 out of 5 stars Reece raises the art another notch, November 22, 2000
By 
Shel (Ka Lae, Hawaii) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wahine, The Fine Art Photography of Kim Taylor Reece (Hardcover)
Kim Taylor Reece is by far the leader among photographers currently working in the time-honored tradition of images of Hawaiian women. He brings a rare sense of humor, amazing timing, superb tonality (a la Ansel Adams), natural settings, authentic garb, and eroticism (where this collection opens up new ground) to the subject. True, the images could've been enlarged by shrinking the borders, but anyone really enthused about these works may obtain very large prints from Mr. Reece. As a photographer myself, I'd be hard pressed to improve on any aspect of "Wahine". Considering the reasonable price, I would recommend this book to anyone mesmerized by the unique beauty of the women of Hawaii.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good photos, lousy book, June 17, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Wahine, The Fine Art Photography of Kim Taylor Reece (Hardcover)
While Kim Taylor Reece is obviously a fine photographer, the book itself is lousy. While the cover is typical of both the quality & nature of the rest of the photos, the ones inside are - for the most part - just way too small. One would expect something more than mostly postcard-size pictures in a book 10" x 11". Too bad...

1.0 out of 5 stars Waste of paper and money, February 8, 2002
By 
Kevin O'Brien (New Castle, CO United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Wahine, The Fine Art Photography of Kim Taylor Reece (Hardcover)
This book is a complete waste of the paper it is printed on. The photographs are trite, ordinary, and utterly lacking in creativity and imagination. Any high-school photography student has done more interesting work. In addition, the format is deliberately deceiving. You get to pay for a large-format book with snapshot-size photos. Most of the photos are 4x6 inches, many are smaller, and there is only one photo every other page. Skip this one.
