Beauty photography

Are you intrigued by stylized images of ethereally beautiful models and would you like to know how such shots are created? Or do you think, on the contrary, that photographs falling into the beauty category are one like the other, without ideas and subordinated to the commercial requirements of the customer? Take our advice on how to approach this genre in a distinctive way and you may be surprised at where the eye of a talented photographer can find beauty and what forms it can take. In ten chapters, an experienced artist and photographer will share with you his unique experience in depicting beauty. You will read how he perceives the beauty genre itself, where he looks for photographic opportunities and collaborators, when he is satisfied with his work and when he decides to edit the resulting images further in the computer. In addition to a number of practical tips, the author also offers a reflection on selected images, where he describes in detail the circumstances of their creation, and at the end he has prepared an inspiring gallery where you can see for yourself how varied beauty photography can be.

Among other things, the book will advise you how to:
