BRYAN PETERSON’S NEWEST BOOK!
Capture the perfect portrait–even if it’s with a selfie–in this updated edition of a trusted classic, now with all-new photography.
Great portraits go beyond a mere record of a face. They reveal one of the millions of intimate human moments that make up a life. In Understanding Portrait Photography, renowned photographer Bryan Peterson shows how to spot those “aha!” moments and capture them forever. Rather than relying on pure luck and chance to catch those moments, Peterson’s approach explains what makes a photo memorable, how to spot the universal themes that everyone can identify with, and how to use lighting, setting, and exposure to reveal the wonder and joy of everyday moments.
Bryan has been a successful commercial photographer for over 35 years.
