Understanding Portrait Photography

Beautifully articulated art of portraiture in simple easy manner where even a novice can understand what he or she has to do

Always happy to read Bryan Peterson books.📕Just little annoyed with vendor for providing book with little scratches and torn mark on binding outside.

Excellent reference book for portraits. Lots of information and valuable resource for photographers.

Another awesome book by Bryan, this is my 4th book by him and the way he explains photography and his techniques is in my opinion a great read for new and experienced photographers

Very informative book that gives a lot of information if you are starting out in portrait photography, a more experienced photographer might not find so much information.

Love the book, while use it as a reference document and loan it to friends and budding photographers...

I bought this book for my wife who is a semi-professional photographer as a Christmas present. She loves the images and has learnt some new tips for an area she has previously not worked on so much. Highly recommend.

Disappointing.The tagline probably better describes the objective of this book than the actual title. Whilst I found the first half of the book fairly interesting, and had a few useful tips for photographing people, I felt it drifted further and further away from the core subject as it moved on. By the end, I felt the author was just padding it out to reach a prescribed page count, and any relevance to portraiture was pretty tenuous.Yes, there are some great photos in here, and some of the background detail is interesting to read but if you're looking for s book to teach you portraiture (which I was) then this misses the mark by a mile.I'm sorry I bought it.
