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 CS4, 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.
