OverviewAs the popularity of photography grew, so did the technology that backed it up. In particular, lighting styles changed to reflect both advancing technology and changing mores. As fashion and society evolved, so did portraiture. In this book, Christopher Grey shows you how to capture the signature lighting styles of bygone eras but with today's cameras, light sources, and postproduction tools. Learning to produce these often studied (but rarely attempted) styles will open up a world of creative possibilities and take your portrait to the next level!
