Jeff Smith's Posing Techniques for Location Portrait Photography

Advanced amateur or professional photographers may get bored by this book, but newcomers to model photography, I do not know if I use the correct term, this book is excellent. Reading, understanding, and applying positively affect my photos right away. I personally was having problem in getting the right pose for model, especially full body. I have never felt good with the composition. I guess it was because the shape of human body is different from normal photo frame. The way Jeff describes things are is excellent. Not so much of hard chewed theory. Practical approach with a small but make sense backgrounds makes me focus into trying to apply his lessons right away.
