Need recommendation for a book on posing
Hi,
Can some recommend a book which illustrates how to pose people for portraits. I would love a book that would show full body poses and posing shots outside the studio. I saw a few books that show lots of upper body indoor type portraits, but they were too focused as such. I want to learn where, for example a model should keep her hands while standing. Or, where her feet should be positioned. Thanks for any and all help. Dave |

I like it because it shows three or four incremental examples so that you can see each posing technique getting better. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1584281707/ |
