Book DescriptionThese expert tips guide photographers through the creation of elaborate and fun portraits that reveal subjects as imaginatively rendered characters, such as a fairy princess, a 1950s greaser, or a 1940s Hollywood starlet. More than 60 acclaimed portraits are accompanied by a detailed discussion of each image-from planning the image with the client, building the set, and selecting the right costuming to styling the hair and adding makeup. The technical aspects of the images are also discussed, including exposure, posing, and lighting the subject and set.
