Studio Portrait Photography A Guide to Classic Portrait Photography

Of all the potential subjects for the camera, portraiture - recording the human face and figure - is without doubt the most popular, and the most fascinating. Everybody who picks up a camera takes pictures of people, and recording a good likeness is not particularly difficult. What is much harder, however, is managing to capture something of the character of the person in front of the lens, something that gives the viewer of the photograph an insight into what makes the subject tick.Hilton, Jonathan is the author of 'Studio Portrait Photography A Guide to Classic Portrait Photography' with ISBN 9782880462543 and ISBN 2880462541.
