It´s damn cold... How about some warming books?
Hi everyone,
it starts to get really really ugly outside! All I want to do is to curl up with a good book and wait for spring... Now... what do I want? I want something nice to look at, interesting to read and to learn from. Hence I recommend this books for all photographers, models and those that just wanna how how pretty photos of the past were made.
Bernard of Hollywood - "Guide to Pin up Photography": Very nice for beginners, as it also illustrates where the light is, the position of photographer etc. etc.
Peter Gowland - "How to Photograph Women", "Electronic Flash" and "Figure Photography": Dear MR. Gowland. Iam your fan! You explain how to do nice photos with available light and other not expensive possibilities! When I do my selfs I just don´t have any fancy equipment and have to rely on daylight and flash. Thanks to you I know that I mustn´t be ashamed. In some books I even found posing guides, which off course catch my interest and inspire me for my shootings!
Bunny Yeager - "How I photograph myself": Admittedly Bunnys hardest to get book, but it is worth to look out for it. Now I´ve seen places where it went for more than 100 bucks and that is insane. Be smart and wait for a bargain!
Robert Dance & Bruce Robertson "Ruth Harriet Louise and Hollywood Glamour Photography" - If you want to know something about the life of an Hollywood movie studio photographer in the mid 20s to the 30s this will be a treat for you!
Enjoy!!!!
