Download or read book True Confessions of Nude Photography written by A. K. Nicholas and published by Bella Nuda Arts. This book was released on 2017-01-02 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Step-by-Step Guide to Recruiting Beautiful Models, Lighting, Photographing Nudes, Post-Processing Images, and Maybe Even Getting Paid to Do It. (third edition) Prior experience with nude models is not required to benefit from this how-to guide. This guide can be enjoyed by anyone, but is written for two main audiences: the accomplished photographer wanting insight from a peer, and the serious amateur wanting a guided introduction to the field. The female body has been an inspiration for artists since before the invention of photography. Naturally, nudes were one of the first subjects of photography as well. Although the guide covers the basics of nude photography, it is assumed that you have a digital camera that is more advanced than a point-and-shoot and that you already understand the basics of operating your camera. This book deals with female models. You won't find male models or advice on photographing non-models in this book. Finding Models: Nude photography entails more than just photographic technique, there is a huge interpersonal element; much more so than in any other kind of people photography. The guide addresses everything from finding models, to working with them long term. Most guides on photographic technique assume you've already found a willing model. This one assumes that you're having trouble - or at least having trouble finding a model that you feel takes your work to the next level. It contains techniques for finding and recruiting models. Techniques: A range of processes are explained step-by-step. You'll find more than just a selection of photos and a dissection of each; you'll see full lighting diagrams as well as frank discussions of techniques and pitfalls in the days and weeks leading up to making a nude image. From finding your first nude model to selling your first nude photo, the guide presents complete, concise instruction on lighting, posing, and-post processing with Photoshop.

Download or read book Natural Beauty written by Robert Farber and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Farber is celebrated for his sensitive, sensual, often abstract nudes. But his preoccupation with natural forms extends beyond the human body: landscapes and flower studies have been among his most popular pieces, and also feature among the works published here. The technical proficiency fostered by Farber's background in commercial and fashion photography bestows an inimitably soft, grainy patina upon his increasingly simple, elegant, spare images. Light, color, tone, and composition are all carefully orchestrated to render a sense of stillness, silence, and peace. Whether presented as portraits or as abstract compositions, what these exquisite pieces have in common is their ability to provoke in the viewer a sense of quietude and contemplation. Painterly, textured, these masterly photographs prove that Farber's reputation as the doyen of mood is utterly deserved.

Download or read book Photograph The Nude written by and published by Amherst Media. This book was released on 2015-12-21 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nude photography can be divided into numerous subgenres, including artistic, commercial, glamour, and nude portraits. Within each subgenre there are variations in the way various subjects are presented—the lighting, posing, location, and even the expression must suit the unique parameters of the specific specialty. In this book, Peter Bilous investingates the techniques required to create artistic nudes. Artistic nudes are images in which the human body is used to create art; these photographs are not intended to be a representation of the person; they are not portraits. Many times the subject does not make eye contact, and though it is not a hard-and-fast rule, there is typically no portrayal of emotion on the face and no emotional expression in the pose. So, how do you orchestrate all of the aspects of creating such an image? As Bilous details in this book, creating an effective artistic nude photograph is aided by cultivating an understanding of the work of the pioneers of the art form and even modern-day practitioners. It also requires the proper equipment—from zoom and prime lenses, to studio strobes and continuous lights to modifiers of every shape and size and the associated lighting accessories (light meter, remote triggers). Finally, you’ll need the means to process your images and output them, whether via digital transfer and sharing or via print. After detailing gear requirements for successful artistic nude photography, Bilous addresses finding suitable models for the project you have in mind. He points out which body types—from fit and athletic to tall and slim to curvy—work best for various artistic objectives, from bodyscapes to detail or feature-specific works. He also provides tactics for finding models, covering your bases with model releases, and even creating rapport. Posing and composition are important components of every artistic nude. The right pose will accentuate the features and, combined with artful composition, will lead the viewer’s eye through the scene. Bilous provides tips for finessing the position of every body part, from head to toe, for a controlled artistic expression. Next, he delivers strategies for creating a mood in the image that furthers the artistic merit of the shot. Bilous then moves on to explore the challenges and benefits of shooting in the studio (whether a home studio or commercial space) versus working on location and provides insight into creating or finding/modifying effective and flattering light. Readers will learn how to produce key lighting styles and patterns and will get specific ideas for capturing a variety of image looks using creative camera angles, highlighting the scene, or even downplaying location elements. Finally, Bilous takes the artistic nude a step farther: readers will investigate the artistic potential of using long shutter speeds, unusual compositions, shadows, silhouettes, creative lighting, and post-processing effects.

Book excerpt: Images of the nude human form are among the oldest art forms—from simple drawings, to grand statuary, to classic painting and contemporary photography, artists’ fascination with the human body has endured throughout time and across every form of creative expression. Within the pages of this book, accomplished fine-art nude photographer Jennifer Emery begins by presenting the key elements of lighting and posing the human body to best flatter the subject and express the desired design. With these fundamentals in place, she expands and elevates the practice of photographing nudes to develop more conceptual, fine-art looks that go beyond merely representing the subject and strive to communicate more complex ideas and aesthetics. As she demonstrates, fine-art nude photography can go far beyond a mere black backdrop and some interesting lighting. Full of color, motion, and style, Emery’s images spark intrigue, admiration, passion, and excitement!
