Relationship Portraits: Capture Emotion In Black & White Photography Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
Tim Walden’s photographic forte is capturing relationship images—emotionally resonant images that show the connection between subjects. To achieve this goal, he strives to proceed through a three-step portrait process: capture, adjust, and refine. He studies the clients and does not push the shutter button until he sees some magic unfold. If the clients are still “in the moment,” he may make a slight adjustment to the pose or lighting and capture a second, slightly varied image. If the subjects are still enthralled at that point, he will make a further refinement, producing a portrait that, in Tim’s mind, is the pinnacle shot—the dynamic, emotionally evocative, storytelling images he strives for.In this book, Tim presents over 60 images from some of his most memorable sessions, sharing with readers tips for capturing moments, enhancing the presentation, and truly amplifying the artistry of the capture to produce a fine-art image that will be cherished for generations.

This is a nice book to provide inspirational ideas for portraits emotionally linking more than one subject. Tim provides his lighting formula, which is used repeatedly, as well as his insights about various nuances he considered with the various example portraits. Tim and his wife operate a successful portrait studio, as well as an online education business. Their solid success is proof that photography skills PLUS business skills make for the winning formula. This book doesn't delve into that area, however their business education products are available for purchase through their online education site.
Tim Walden's book, Relationship Portraits, is an excellent resource that discusses the value and importance of connecting with the clients portrait photographers work with. Walden focuses on and demonstrates exactly why it is so important for portraitists to connect with their clients on a personal level in order to tell their story through the photograph.Relationship Portraits in not a story book with images. If one takes the time to read into the stories within, one will find a wealth of information regarding how and why Walden photographed each subject in a way that needs no words to tell their story. This book is about the heart and soul of portrait photography; it is a refreshing and unique perspective in a world of "how to" books in photography. Well done sir.
I have always had great respect for the Walden's portrait work. I have always wished I could get inside inside their heads in order to better understand what it takes to capture an emotional connection in my family portraits; this book does just that. I'm so excited to take what they have shared in the book and apply it to my images.
Tim Walden is the world's foremost black and white relationship portrait photographer! His courses in lighting are the best around and his books are treasured keepsakes in my photographic library!
