Does anyone know of a really good online guide or book that covers posing?

I just received the Posing Guides CD and the Guide to Posing the Female Model from Photography Tips... from what I've seen so far I like them. There may be less expensive alternatives out there...

I got the same thing as Steve did- from Photography Tips. Some old classics in there, and some more interesting stuff. Not all great, but certainly not all bad. And it's not too expensive either.

Awhile back, I found the followig link to be helpful:

http://www.photocrack.com/main/index.htm

When you go to their page, click on the "English Version", then go to "Downloads". The second link down on the Downloads Page is a nice little Posing Guide(ModelPose version 1.1 Pro), which is free of charge. It is done in 'line art', but easy to understand.

I hope this helps...Good luck!

Cindy is right... I have "Posing Techniques for Digital Portraits" by Jeff Smith from Amherst Media. It's about $15 (maybe cheaper on-line) and contains some good tips.

I wonder if it covers facial expression (vowels)?
