Mastering the Model Shoot

Amsterdam-born Frank Doorhof has been photographing fashion and glamour models and teaching these skills for years. With numerous DVDs and Kelby Training classes under his belt, he is an instructor who lives and breathes this subject matter. In Photographing Models: Everything Photographers Need to Know Before, During, and After the Shoot, Frank covers everything the photographer needs to know to get underway in this kind of work: how to find the right models, make-up artists, and stylists; backgrounds, props, and clothes; lighting?whether small flash, studio, or even natural light; coaching the model to get the look you need; retouching; marketing; and the technical foundations you need to know regarding light metering and color calibration. Toward the end of the book, Frank pulls it all together and walks the reader through an entire photo shoot from start to finish. By the end of Photographing Models, the reader is well-equipped to take on the challenge of finding and working with professional talent, and succeeding!
