The focus is on fashion-style shots, so the models are all beautiful and skinny, this isn't a book about making average-looking people look good.The book starts with a short section on technical aspects of fashion shooting: lighting, makeup, and retouching, which are critically important to this type of picture, and although this book is primarily about posing, I like how the author tries to make it clear in the beginning that posing isn't the only important thing, and a good understanding of these other issues is going to be necessary to create similar pictures.Some posing books are just bland collections of a few average models showing assortments of uninspired looks that seem like they were shot over a weekend in front of the same piece of seamless. This book contains many, many great shots of different models in different locations taken by different photographers, some very well known. The production levels are very high, and most of the finished photos are awesome. The author himself took some of the photos, and for these shots he includes rejected images from the shoot as well as the final shot, with commentary on why he rejected some of the pictures, with reasoning like "bad hand position", "unbalanced composition", etc, I found this to be very useful. There are lighting diagrams provided for the author's own photos, but I notice the lighting in these shots tends to be quite simple with one high frontal light and one background light, so this isn't really a lighting tutorial.I agree with an earlier review that this book would be much more useful as an iPad app where I could quickly find the pose I want. There is an iPad version of this book, but it's just an iBook, not an app, I downloaded the preview version and it seemed to have some formatting issues and wasn't as useful as the printed version. Anyway, this book is a large, somewhat heavy hardcover, so it's just not convenient to carry around on location, and it looks somewhat amateurish to be flipping through a book like this in front of a model. I would appreciate the coolness factor of just showing her on the iPad what I want.So I'm giving this book 5 stars for its great advice, high production values, huge selection of poses, and reasoned arguments for why to use particular poses. I'll be trying some of them at my next shoot! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not just a pretty picture *by P***N on January 16, 2013* Chapter 1 of this book re: the "Technical Know-How" was the best, brief, graphic presentation of the basics of portraiture photography I have seen. It's Chapter 2, "The Poses" that most intrigued me. While some might view this extensive presentation of poses as mere changing of angles in capturing portraits, I discovered it instructing me as to story telling, that is, shooting high, medium, low, varying the lighting, the different expressions of the models and the way they held themselves, each conveyed a different message. This was not something I expected. I discovered in this book an excellent instruction manual of body language communication in photos. Having said that, I must also note that this is not a "fine art" book by which one may impress his or her friends on the coffee table. While the production of the pictures is very good, it does not rate an excellent reproduction quality which would also have upped the price significantly. This book is not only what it set out to be, "a handy reference guide to intelligent posing," but also a photographer's guide to communicative photography. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tricks of the Trade *by P***R on September 3, 2013* Wonderful book for the photographer, professional or amateur alike. There is no more interesting subject than women, and this book focusses on the many ways to bring out there beauty in your photography. Not only are there many great poses to look at and consider, the book starts from a technical aspect, showing you the set ups. Then it shows a number of poses and their pros and cons. Finally, you can see the best shot and how they arrived at it.Part of the book is shots and discussion by famous professional photographers. I find this part very interesting because you can see where the style of the photographer makes such a big difference. If you didn't realize how important it is for a photographer to bring out the best of their subject, this book will show you. It's clear from reading this book why even the best professional models like working with a creative, knowledgeable photographer.What a great book! ## Frequently Bought Together - Photographing Women: 1,000 Poses - The Photographer's Guide to Posing: Techniques to Flatter Everyone - POSE!: 1,000 Poses for Photographers and Models --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/3917935-photographing-women-1-000-poses](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/3917935-photographing-women-1-000-poses) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-08-28*
