I have been searching and searching like crazy for some good posing books. I am looking to get better images and I know my posing lacks quite a bit. I have a senior portraits shoot coming up and I am trying to do some good research on posing and location lighting. So far the best info I have seen, but have yet to purchase is the Photovision Location Lighting DVD set. I have bought a couple of books so far and they are ok. Anyone else have any good suggestions as to good info?

    Ive read a few of Scott Kelby's books and those arent the type of books I am looking for. I have googled photographers in my local area and most of them dont have very good posing. I have tried looking just at random photogs pages and they have some amazing work, but I would also like to know what things they look for and so on. There was a book I saw on Amazon called something like 500 poses for women, but I read the reviews and theres no text. Any other suggestions?
