Each portrait is paired with text that details the artist's creative inspiration, the lighting setup, clothing/wardrobe concerns, and exposure techniques. Furthermore, readers will learn to adapt unique approaches from location sessions, to storytelling/themed portraits, to sexy underwater boudoir, and even creative composite ideas to diversify their repertoire, ensure artistic growth, and improve sales.
