The Nude in Photography
"The nude in photography portrays nudes in all kinds of attitudes and settings as they have evolved since the 1850s, when the photographer Durieu posed some of the earliest nudes in history under the direction of the artist Delacroix in Paris. More than 70 notable photographers are presented, including Peter Basch, Bill Brandt, Elliott Erwitt, Milton H. Greene, and others."--Amazon.
The Naked and the Lens
The Naked and the Lens is designed as both a technical guide and an artistic inspiration. Filled with beautiful images of the nude form, it also shows you how this can be technically achieved. The book covers key topics: concept, lighting, directing, post-production, and artisic re-interpretation and how to find models. Legal and photo release issues are covered as well. The techniques are up-to-date, including Photoshop CS?, RAW capture and shooting with a gray card to capture accurate white balance information. The lighting section will also show how to get studio quality light from hot-shoe flashes by adapting them to umbrellas and soft boxes. Regardless of whether you are shooting in a studio or in a field, this book will show you how to create works of art with nude bodies and it will also teach through advice in a unique interview section with leading nude photographers around the world through their words and their images.
"Models Wanted--any Age, Any Size"
The Nude Photography of Rankin is a collection of portraits by the celebrated photographer Rankin. The result of an anonymous ad in London's Time Out magazine for nude models, all ages, all sizes, for photographic exhibition, this book is a collaboration between Rankin and the women who agreed to stand naked in front of his camera. The faces (and figures) collected in this book range from familiar film, fashion and pop icons to highly individual ordinary women, all of whose portraits reflect their feeling and fantasies with style and humor.
True Confessions of Nude Photography
A Step-by-Step Guide to Recruiting Beautiful Models, Lighting, Photographing Nudes, Post-Processing Images, and Maybe Even Getting Paid to Do It. (third edition) Prior experience with nude models is not required to benefit from this how-to guide. This guide can be enjoyed by anyone, but is written for two main audiences: the accomplished photographer wanting insight from a peer, and the serious amateur wanting a guided introduction to the field. The female body has been an inspiration for artists since before the invention of photography. Naturally, nudes were one of the first subjects of photography as well.

Past Masters of the Nude

Fully Exposed
Fully Exposed is a pioneering cultural history of the photography of the male nude which sets the photographer and the model within our cultural and historical perceptions and prejudices. This second edition extends the book's coverage so that the story from the beginnings of the medium to the present day is complete. Fully Exposed is lavishly illustrated with over two hundred and fifty photographs,many of them new to this edition. Different chapters discuss how the male nude has been used by artists, the way it has been treated in the popular press,in relation to British colonialism and scientific ideology. It also discusses `private pictures' taken at home or acquired as erotic material by the private collector. A final chapter brings the book up-to-date and discusses the male nude in the nineties. The combination of art criticism and photographic essay make this an unusual and important book both for academics and the general reader.
Photograph The Nude
“Artistic nude” is a subgenre of nude photography. In artistic nude images, the human body itself is the subject of the art. In these photographs, the subject typically does not make eye contact with the viewer and there is typically no emotion shown in the subject’s face or through the pose. Peter Bilous teaches you how to choose the right equipment for the job, determine the suitability of a model with a particular body type (athletic, curvy, or thin) for the look you have in mind, and how to light, pose, and compose the image elements for maximum impact. You’ll survey work from the pioneers and contemporary masters in the subgenre and find inspiration for finessing your style or branching out into whole new realms of expression. You’ll also learn special approaches (long exposures, silhouettes, creative lighting, etc.) that will help you create standout work that satisfies your creative vision.
