Thousands of talented photographers and not many new clients. This is why you need something to make you stand out, to make your photos sparkle. Covering all the basics and including sample images and lighting and posing tips, these books will provide you with years of experience bundled up and improve your portrait photography skills immensely.
Taking a portrait is not just about a pretty face and a trendy dress. A compelling portrait shows not just the face, but the person behind the face. Showing the history and personality of a person with just one picture is not an easy task. This is why learning as much as you can and combining it with your own style becomes super important. The following 3 books, written by professionals, have it all — tips, photos, settings, lighting and much more.
The Heart of Portraiture by Don Giannatti.
Don Giannatti is a photographer with more than 40 years of experience in shooting, writing and even creating websites and ads for big companies. Using his own portfolio, he describes in-depth what gear he used, how he manipulated light and how he got the poses right to get the shots. Simply put, the book is an insight into how his artistic and photographic mind works. In here you will find all kinds of portraits, from bright sunsets with backlit hair to moody street shots showing character. Learning about lighting and poses is essential, and Don Giannatti does an excellent job of putting his thinking and knowledge in an easy to read e-book.
Professional Portrait Photographers Collective Vol. Although it is important to learn about composition, lighting and your equipment, it is equally important to learn how to grow as a photographer.

Cheap looking poses and very poor selection of outfits. The author has no taste what so ever. When I say cheap, I don't mean the revealing dresses.
