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.

Nude Photography
The dawn of the daguerrotype 150 years ago has brought not only the birth of photography, but a renaissance in the study of nudes as well. This book tells the story of nudes in the photographic medium, from the world's most important photographers. Starting with the pioneer Daguerre, whose 1839 photograph of a nude sculpture set artistic precedent, this book spans the decades to early twentieth century greats such as Alfred Steiglitz, Man Ray and Brassai, to contemporary photographers such as Robert Mapplethorpe, David Levinthal and Duane Michals. The volume is a tour through a photographic gallery which treats the viewer to aspects of female beauty from the perspective of the camera lens. S...
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 Body Exposed
Secondly, the conventional distinction between tasteful nudes and tasteless pictures of naked bodies has outlived its usefulness, since this allegedly aesthetic evaluation merely conceals the moral standards of the last century with their long since outdated notions of "propriety and decency".
"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.
