Description

Determining the best way to pose a subject—a way that is simultaneously flattering, appropriate, and visually appealing—can be one of the biggest challenges in designing a successful portrait. This is especially true when creating portraits of brides, where the photographer may be called on to create anything from a very traditional head-and-shoulders pose to a more adventurous full-length look straight out of the pages of a fashion magazine. Quite simply, the variations are almost limitless—as is the pressure to perform flawlessly throughout this once-in-a-lifetime event. This collection is a visual sourcebook designed to address exactly that problem. Filled with images by some of the world’s most accomplished wedding photographers, it provides a resource for professionals seeking inspiration for their own work. Stuck on what to do with a particular bride or unsure how to make use of a location? Flip through the sample portraits, pick something you like, then adapt it as needed to suit your tastes. Looking to spice up your work with some new poses? Find a sample that appeals to you and look for ways to implement it (or some element of it) with one of your brides. It can be difficult to remain creative day after day, year after year, but sometimes all you need to break through a slump is a little spark. In this book, you’ll find a plethora of images designed to provide just that. Read more

    • A canned quick gather of wedding model shoots
Format: Kindle
Some photos are clearly of models at a meetup group type shoot, unless the bride, groom, or relatives were able to afford multiple professional photogs which is highly unlikely. Or, perhaps the editor of this placed the wrong photog names on some shots. Clearly, the same bride appears to have had different shots by different photogs. The brides appear, in some cases, to be models anyway. The photos contacts Ned herein do not appear, on my device anyway, to be HD, so they don't look very good. That's the whole point of getting such a resource - to review the image. Either that or the photography quality was poor. That's the case in some photos anyway, which appear to be: Poor overall quality in composition, resolution, etc. Too editorial for the typical bride And, some photos are clearly photoshopped with various effects, which goes against the point of view f this resource. This seemed to be a resource for posing, not PS techniques of dispersion or blurring effects of brides dress trains, etc. Text lesson offered is minimal and anecdotal. I would skip this and just internet image search for posing ideas. ... show more

    • Helpful for new photographers but not great for experienced ones
Format: Paperback
I'm a fairly experienced photographer now and I looked over this book again. The book and picture quality are good and it does a nice job of laying out a lot of examples. And if you're new to posing I think this book will be helpful and give you some places to start. But, like 20% of the poses they show are just kind of weird and cringey and maybe another 10% are just very generic. I was a little surprised they had so many poses like that. So like I said, if you're new, it can be helpful and give you some ideas to think about. But if you're an experienced photographer who wants a comprehensive list of wedding poses, I would not pick this book. ... show more

    • Some good photographs
Format: Kindle
I chose three stars because there are some decent photographs, but most are awkwardly photoshopped. It will give you some good shot ideas to pose but not do what the do in post.

    • Not for pros
Format: Kindle
Its not very informative. No instructions, You just look at the photos and try to mimic them. It's an over rated picture book.

    • Not worth the money

Doesn't give anything that's super creative or out of the norm photography for weddings. Wouldn't waste your money on this book.
