Photography eBooks ??? - GoFuckYourself.com

DeanCapture · 06-29-2005, 04:11 PM

Hey gang, I'm about to write a few eBooks on Glamour/Erotic Photography. What kinds of subjects would you shooters be interested in reading about?

What areas of Photography give you the most trouble?

What areas do you understand the least?

Shooting?
Lighting?
Composition?
Metering?
Finding Girls?
Color Correcting/Retouching?
????????????

Im serious. Finding girls is the easy part.
Do a good walkthrough with a few different digital cameras.
Lighting would also be good, but less tech more "I do not have a pro lighting kit" stuff.
All other areas sound good to except finding girls.

fischi · 06-29-2005, 04:26 PM

I would add:
creating a real series of images from a shoot, not a 1 fps movie

Finding girls is not the easy part for everyone. I get emails & ICQ's all the time from people asking all kinds of questions and finding girls is one of the more popular ones. All of the items I listed above are common questions that I get pretty regularly.

I do like your idea here though. How to produce quality content with a $200 digital camera from Walmart and a $25 light from Home Depot. That would be a good seller huh?

tony286 · 06-29-2005, 04:44 PM

you could do it like this guy :http://www.bluesky-web.com/dvd1headshot.htm
Info in small chunks and they can buy what they need. Will you be including how to make a million dollars with a throw away camera and a dream lol

EROTEEK · 06-29-2005, 04:44 PM

...ummm, SELLING the images? methinks that would be a good chapter...

tony286 · 06-29-2005, 04:46 PM

Either divide it up into 3 - 4 books or make a big course with 3 books and a DVD or two and sell that for a couple hundred $$.

Do you want to target people in the adult industry or amateur photographers? If just the adult industry then do the books.

pornguy · 06-29-2005, 09:03 PM

I think making a novel out of it is the best idea. From finding the camera that suits your needs, to the use and lights, to finding the girls.
