Learn how to make all of your subjects look their very best!
Whether it's acne, protruding ears, not-so-white teeth, or a little weight, everyone has something about their appearance they'd rather not see in their portraits. What many photographers fail to realize, however, is that their ability to conceal these flaws can make the difference between financial success and ruin—because the plain and simple truth is that portaits people actually buy are the ones in which they look good.
In this step-by-step guide you'll learn the techniques you need to photograph real people, not just models. Whether it's frizzy hair, double chins, eyeglass glare, not-so-flat stomachs, or baldness, Jeff Smith shows you how to tackle the problem successfully (and tactfully).
With a combined approach that includes careful lighting, posing, and retouching, you'll be able to correct flaws and deliver portraits your clients will love.
