Excellent one-book treatment of all the major aspects of taking portraits
I agree with what most of the previous reviewers have written about Steve and this book and apologize for repeating some of the same ideas that they have already conveyed.

This book is exactly what I was looking for
I have numerous portrait photography books and I think this is the best of the bunch. I wanted to learn how to properly use my monolights and my light meter.

If You Get A Book on Portraits, GET THIS ONE!
Of late, I have been skeptical of new books, because many of them are rehashes of prior books. Not so for this one!
