Does any1 know if there's a good book on styling, poses, choosing location etc for portraits ? Cause I hardly do any portrait until very recently I have no experience whatsoever on the subject, mostly outdoor portraits for friends and amateur models but I just cant seems to figure out those things listed above to match the person I'm shooting, any advice from the pro ?
Primary kit:
Fuji S5 Pro - Nikkor AF 50/1.8 - Nikkor AF 85/1.8
Epson RD-1
Film Kit:
Leica M3 - Summicron 50/2 DR - Zeiss ZM 25/2.8 - M-Rokkor 40/2
Olympus OM2n - Zuiko 50/2 Macro - Zuiko 50/1.4 - Zuiko 35/2.8
what u shooting single or group shots?
there is a place on the net that has a load of poses (single person) that you can use..
for group shots i'd reccomend a book called professional posing techniques for wedding and portrait photographers - by norman phillips
location wise, i'd go with what you want to bring accross in the pictures, fun, moody? have u asked the person you're taking the pics of what kind of pics they want to come out of the shoot with?

Cute? so you'll want a park type setting? or a farm with some cute animals? or find a dog breeder and see if they have had puppies?
or hire a studio for an hour and see if you can get sexy cute?
