An excellent reference book packed with lots of good information. The section on understanding your clients was very helpful as it sets the tone for a successful session. Having a confident and reassuring attitude that will develop a relaxed client is another great topic covered. Techniques for lighting and posing to optimize your client's assets include in studio and on location. Finally, anyone can benefit from the marketing plans outlined that will help stimulate income and growth from glamour photography. A worth while investment for those involved in this field.
