I am a long-time photographer (40+ years) preparing to shoot my daughter's wedding. I purchased this book to give me setting, posing, and style ideas. I have found it to be excellent. The well-laid out pages offer a nearly endless supply of perfect and near-perfect shots with terse tips and a few observations. I've found it perfect for thumbing through evenings to fill my mind with creative concepts. My wife and I have spent considerable time discussing concepts and execution. I (almost) never buy print books anymore; but this one I'm very happy to own. Highly recommended.

THE BOOK WAS NOT WHAT I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE. I THOUGHT IT WOULD HAVE BETTER, MORE MODERN POSES. A LITTLE OLD FASHIONED BUT IT WILL GET YOUR OWN CREATIVE JUICES FLOWING OF WHAT COULD OF BEEN DONE DIFFERENTLY IN EACH POSE. A LOT OF THE POSES WERE REPEATED BUT WITH DIFFERENT MODELS. IT GAVE HELPFUL INFORMATION AS FAR AS THE ART OF POSING. WOULD I RECOMMEND THIS TO SOMEONE..IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR MODERN, NO I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS TO YOU.

Just so I can pose for some of the shots I've seen in this book. Like the other titles in this series, it's chalked full of brides in all sorts of dresses in all sorts of environments, in all sorts of poses. I can't wait to shoot my next bride actually and wish the wedding I've already done were more traditional so I could have shot my bride/daughter in a variety of poses picked and pieced from images in this book. I may actually employ some of the concepts in a few of the engagement sessions I have coming up.

Although I photographed several hundred weddings when I was much younger I now only do a wedding if it is for a relative or someone affiliated with an important client. Given how infrequently I do wedding work I really want to make sure that I am giving the couple what they expect. I gift this book, and a few others, to the bride and ask ask her to look through it and let me know if she sees any poses that she really wants. So far it has been helpful to uncover what style of wedding photography she is attracted to. That however should not be confused with losing control of the job, it's just that I like to know their expectations and to make sure that we are on the same page. One thing thing that I should point out is that, in my opinion, there are not really 500 different poses in this book. Just having the bride shift her eyes from one pose to another does not constitute a different pose, just a variation of the previous one. Also, the photographs are taken by several different photographers so there is inherently going to be even more duplication than if it was shot by one person. My gut feeling is that there are less than 200 original, unique poses. Still, I find this book to be helpful when used in conjunction with several others.

This book is a sourcebook for digital wedding photographers, which means that it does not cover howto, guides etc. It just show you portrait photos from top wedding photographers that work with Amherst Media. Some of them are book author. The book consists of mainly photos which are grouped according the the theme: Close up, getting ready, standing, sitting, creative and so on. Ocassionally, there will be a quote of tips from photographer on posing. In the appendix section, it has some tips for posing. Wedding photographers who want to look for inspiration might be benefited from this book if they observe carefully about the posing and lighting. However, it is unfortunate that there are no caption or description on each photos to explain the pose. Readers are forced to learn by themselves. In the end, reading this book is kinda similar to viewing wedding photos online. I can't recommend this book. If you are looking for book that explain about posing, I will rather recommend Doug Box's Guide to Posing for Portrait Photographers. Read more photography books review at my blog. You can get the address on my profile page. Thanks for reading.

A fantastic book for posing brides and this book is very useful for posing women/girls in general as I had hoped. The photos are grouped into like categories and I find that very helpful. This book has not made it to my bookshelf yet because it stays out on my desk for reference and ideas. If you need a little help with posing ideas, go ahead and get this book, you won't be disappointed.

I love photography and I put a lot of study into it. This book is a good reference, however I feel as though there needs to be some explanation to the pictures. The book is full of pictures with very little explanation on technique, I mean very little. This book would go great if paired with another photography book that explains lighting and composition, but all by itself it is not that good. Pictures are top notch though. This book is more for well seasoned or educated photographers, not for beginners by any means unless you love looking at pictures.
