Summary: A Fun Guide to "Doing Fetish Photography"
Review: This book is fun to look at just for the hot fetish pictures alone, but there's also a ton of information about doing fetish oriented photography, whether just for yourself or professionally. The author who has done this sort of thing for years and years offers his advice on items like negotiating shoots, digital imaging, "tools and techniques," devloping your own personal style of photography, keeping records, legal issues, fighting censorship, and where to meet models. As I read the book, I got a sense that Gatewood was offering his thoughts on doing this kind of photography as well as advice on how to do it well. A lot of his personal stories are fascinating as well. He also spends a chapter (Four Promiment Masters) discussing other well-known fetish photographers; Annie Sprinkle, Micheal Rosen, Barbara Nitke, and Eric Kroll.

I would have gotten this book just to have some of the wonderful pictures, but the information Gatewood offers in addition to the photos make this a wonderful book to have, for anyone interested in this specific realm of photography.
