Body Style reveals the subcultural body as a site for understanding subcultural identity; resistance; agency; and fashion. Analyzed; theorized; politicized; and sensationalized; the subcultural body functions as a framework where individuals build a sense of self and subcultural identity. Drawing on specific subcultural examples and interviews with members; Body Style explores the subcultural body and its style within global culture. Body Style is the result of over twelve years of research examining these intersections within specific urban subcultures; including Urban Tribals; Modern Primitives; Punks; Cybers; Industrials; Skaters; and others. Divided into three main sections on subcultural body history; subcultural body identity and subcultural body styles; this book will be of particular interest to students of dress and fashion as well as those coming to subculture from sociology and cultural studies.

I wish I had purchased a hard-bound copy; as the book is rather thin and flimsy. The tips and posing options were helpful; and he definitely gives a detailed glimpse into a day in the life of a wedding photographer. However; if you are just starting out; this might stress you out a little as Brett shoots "magazine style" which can be overwhelming to someone new to the photography business.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.

Even though it only goes through one wedding it really helped me fully understand even the basic concepts of aperture; ISO; etc. I will be looking for more books by this author.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. fstop and shutter speed for every picture which is great.

On the kindle when you double click on the photo; it comes out very blurry. To me some of the poses are weird. Lots of good ones though.
