5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Have For Any Photoshop User, May 22 2004

By

This review is from: Adobe Photoshop cs: The Art of Photographing Women (Paperback)

Kudos! If you are even thinking of getting into digital photography or boosting your photoshop skills to the next level, this book is THE book to own. At a price you cant beat, and the skills from one of the best in the world (if not the best), The Art of Photographing Women will not let you down. Kevin brilliantly alows the user to down load the same images that are in the book, so you can follow each step word for word and image for image.

I love this book!

This is an excellent book filled with beautiful imagery and relevent information. The examples are clear in purpose and delivery. I would whole heartedly recommend this textbook for those that wish to expand their basic knowledge and application of Photoshop skills. We are using Kevin's book as required reading in our Digital Photography program at The Creatvie Circus school in Atlanta. I look forward to the next installment of Kevin Ames' Photoshop working manuals, as they are very useful and user friendly. A++

This review is from: Adobe Photoshop cs: The Art of Photographing Women (Paperback)

This step-by-step photoshop guide delivers what it promises and is one of the easiest to follow technical books I have ever read. Kevin Ames shares his extensive knowledge and experience by successfully coordinating downloadable images from his website with the lessons in this book to create a truly interactive online classroom. I was particularly impressed with Mr. Ames' ability to clearly communicate complex concepts and with his immediate and personal responses to my email messages.
