Great help for working in CS3 [Posted on 2007-12-03] The tools and exercises were easy to follow and understand, I found all of the information relevant and heplful. All of my photoshop project begin with a glance into this book for tips on how to do it better!
Great investment.
Awesome! [Posted on 2007-12-09] This is a must have book for anyone shooting professional portraits or stock photos with people in them. It explains everything from lighting, to photoshop. Very well written!
Great Book on Skin [Posted on 2008-01-14] I haven't really read all the chapters yet but this book is very professional in terms of the processes they use to enhance images. Everything from different kinds of lighting to the steps through photoshop to printing. With that said, this is not a beginner book. Prior photoshop experience is needed or else one will easily get lost.
VERY HELPFUL, INDEED! [Posted on 2008-05-15] Behind the scenes look at the art and technique of glamour/nude photography. Includes discussion and many wonderful photos to help understand the concepts. I learned several techniques that I was not previously aware of. If you are interested in this type of photo work, I recommend the book. A good value.
A real dissapointment, there are better sources like ... [Posted on 2008-07-10] I'm an experienced photographer and retoucher with Adobe Photoshop. I own many books and think can make a sincere judgment. Well, that said ...I have bought the book based on the many good reviews, but it was a real disappointment. It's outdated and very, very basic. Even the only chapter that actually covers the title of the book about correcting skin tones wasn't useful. Save the money, there are much better books and sources on the Internet. For example do a Google search on `Gry Garness'.
If you're a photographer or Photoshop user with zero experience, then this book might bring you some knowledge, but for the rest it will only be in your book closet unused.
