ABOUT THE AUTHOR
A former photojournalist and reporter, Chris Nelson used to supplement his small-market wages shooting weddings,
advertising images, and senior portraits. In the pr ocess, he found that he enjoyed his sideline more than his day job.
In 1991, he quit his newspaper gig and started a portraiture business, which moved to Fall Creek, Wisconsin, a few
years later and became Fall Creek Portrait Design.
Since then, study within the photographic industry has influenced his development. He credits photographers
Monte Zucker, Don Blair, and Michele Gauger for the foundations of his photographic style. “Robert Lino and
(the late) Dean Collins have really influenced my glamour style,” he says, “and maybe a little of Herb Ritts, too.”
Chris Nelson is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee who earned a B.A. in English (applied writ-
ing and journalism), plus minors in philosophy and fine-art photography. He has also earned his Accolades of pho-
tographic Mastery and Outstanding Photographic Achievement from WPPI (Wedding and Portrait Photographers
International). A number of his glamour images have earned merits in WPPI and PPA (Professional Photographers
of America) competitions, with one currently under consideration for print of the year.
Glamour photography now comprises about 20 percent of his studio’s business and is growing each year. “The
fun part has been learning how to make women look great. The hard part was learning how to build a classy and
artistic image of it,” he recalls. In writing this book, he hopes to help other photographers do just that.
