Portrait Photography : Front Cover |
By Erik Valind 2014 (Hard copy)
A highly recommended book by author / photographer Erik Valind (with very good reader / user reviews on Amazon). The author / photographer not only explains, but demonstrates the correct application(s) of camera / lens settings for improving portrait photos (inside / outdoors / various low light conditions).
I acquired this portraiture photography book mainly for assistance with the following portrait / light fundamentals:
- Camera / Lens selection
- On-camera flash (outdoors / inside / studio)
- Off-camera flash / lighting modifies
- Manipulation of light / light decisions and scenarios
- Single-Person / group portraits
This book is all about understanding the best camera / lens settings for getting the most out of portraiture photography. The 230+ pages are packed with the author's expert portraiture knowledge, skills and many practical portrait / posing demonstrations.
