The Naked and the Lens, Second Edition: A Guide for Nude Photography 2nd Edition

lots of good info!

Not much useful info

More an essay about philosophy and art than boudoir or glamour, if you are into nude glamour female photography let me suggest books by Rolando Gomez. This book is good if you are an "artist" and like abstract work, if you want to see ypur work in a museum or gallery this is the book for you. I wish I had been warned about nude males before purchasing. There are some chapters about technique. It's a well done book but not my style. If you are a college professor you will like this book. If you like glamour and nude you will not. My rating is based on what I perceive of limited practical learning knowledge in the book. The photos in the book are of art nudes, overweight women, body parts, artistic composition, a few men. I suppose if you are a hipster this appeals to you. It might even be worth 5 stars. To summarize if you still shoot film or use a rangefinder exclusively buy this book now! 5 stars. If you like glamour nudes and like skinny blonde bombshells and want to learn more don't buy this book 1 star

This is a second edition of a previous book that features some of the same material and images. Ponders the history of bare photography, inserts interviews of photographers, includes images, equipment, mentions light, framing, location, acquiring models and treatment thereof, laws about photo content, prices, and an index. Insightful.

I don't like that I could not see the privates

Nice

Libro discreto ma che tratta il discorso "nudo fotografico" più da un punto di vista quasi filosofico che pratico. Resta comunque interessante come piacevole lettura o per chi si avvicina al mondo della fotografia del nudo artistico.

super book for erotic photographers. I may be biased though as there is a pic of me in it :)
