Becoming a mentor over night!
This book is AMAZING! It is insightful, inspirational and educational. Giving helpful tips to master the art, while not throwing to much technical babble at me. I’m ADD and ADHD so it is hard for me to sit down and read a book cover to cover no matter what the material is. The layout of this book and the way it is presented makes it easy to take in portions. I will buy every book Robin Owen’s writes from here on out! Thanks for becoming a mentor over night!!!!!!

I really like this one
I really like this one. Robin shows examples of her creativity alongside illustrations of how the lighting made the shot. I would highly recommend this to anyone shooting portraits, nude or otherwise.

Well Done!
Robin does a great job describing how she got the shot, as well as the equipment used. Her name should be synonymous with Jen Rosenbaum and Christa Meola. Well done.

Die Beispiele im Buch sind gut erklärt, manchmal vielleicht etwas zu kurz, aber mit etwas Fantasie kommt man doch zum Ergebnis.

I shoot a lot of studio work. Best book BY FAR that I’ve read on the topic. Robin nails this genre and gave me a new perspective on my glamour work. Totally worthwhile purchase!

I have purchased a number of books covering photographic lighting and most have not really delivered what I expected or just repeated information I already knew. This book actually shows some very simply but effective lighting setups and provides plenty of ideas for those photographers into Boudoir photography. Whether you are just starting out in boudoir and glamour photography or whether you are experienced in that field this book is worth reading. I highly recommend it.
