Description
There is so much detail to be captured in a face. Cicero (106-43 BC) said: "The face is a picture of the mind as the eyes are its interpreter."
To capture a person's personality, there are many things to keep in mind, and the authors of
FACES show us how to match
up a personality with lighting, posing, and composition. Portraiture is truly an art, and this book dives deep into the details so that
you end up with a gorgeous portrait that both you and your subject love.
Not only is this book the most comprehensive title available
on portraiture, but it contains stunning images. Each image is paired with a lighting diagram, a description of why the type of image
was chosen, and then takes you through postproduction to put the finishing touches on. The authors also showcase a gallery of portraits
by renowned photographers.
Audience:
* serious amateur photographers* pro photographers who want to move from another area into portraiture* photography students
