Ed Fox: Glamour From the Ground Up

Ed Fox is the modern day Elmer Batters, but with a modern twist. In this book, he treats feet like exquisite candy, you just want to lick those soles like a lollipop and suck on those toes like Hershey's Kisses. There's a certain bit of nastiness to the photos, but it's very tastefully done. There is no erotic photographer out there who give more respect to the female foot than Ed Fox. This is one of the all-time erotic classics! Thank you, Ed, for your vision and interpretation, looking forward to more!

I love this book. The photos are magnificent THROUGH explore the eroticism of the female foot fetish, one of the most common among men. The models are beautiful Dita Von Teese including who is on the cover of libro.El author manages to capture images showing natural and beautiful women's feet can be a powerful weapon at the time of the seduction by women .. love feet women and this book has become my new bible, the DVD is amazing. I recommend this book is great.

I researched a little about this book before purchasing it. It was basically what I expected when I got it. Reading through a brief biography of Ed Fox in the first few pages, I came to really appreciate what he did. Talking about women's feet is a taboo. I'm not sure why since its a body part just like any other body part. Each have a different function. But I bet some people secretly do have a thing for women's feet. There are of course different levels liking feet. Some love them because they associate with sexuality or sex. Others love them for the beauty. Being a person who loves to look at women's feet, it's hard to find photography books on the subject. People rarely approached it. Ed Fox either loves feet or he was just really desperate for money and thought this would be a good gig. The photography is amazing. I'm not a photographer, but I can see the art in these photos when it comes to angles and lighting. However, his images are of pornographic nature, which isn't a big deal, but it doesn't fit my preferences of what I call great feet photos. Maybe Ed Fox did this to reach a wider audience. But some of the photos are just distracting. Porn is great, I admit to that! Even if its hardcore. But when it comes to feet, I like to see some graceful and elegant women and their feet. Some of the women photographed here are beautiful, but some honestly look like porn stars, drug dealers or prostitutes. This is just my opinion and I'm not trying to condescend. Additionally, the dildos here are just a little distracting. The question I kept asking when seeing the photos with dildos is WHY?? Ed digresses from the theme of the book and sometimes focuses on dildos. Dildos have a place of their own in pornography, but what do these plastic rubber things have anything to do with feet? I don't know. Maybe that's what people are into when it comes to feet. What I would have liked is to see some classy ladies. And not necessarily naked. Sometimes not being completely exposed is sexy too. The girls on here were probably more easy going, but I think Fox could have found some classy women who didn't play with dildos, cigarettes and overdone facial make up that seems like it's used for porno shoots. Again, Ed Fox provides great variety here and there are some truly great photos. But maybe some level of sophistication wouldn't hurt. I haven't seen the dvd yet, but I think it'll be great. Maybe I'll even order the second volume as well. But you really have to know what kind of foot person you are. If you like feet in the context of dildos, hookers and unclean feet, then this is for you. If you want foot photography in general, then this is great. However, if you like charming, sophisticated women and their exposed feet, maybe this is not the best choice. I myself do love the photography and the images themselves. But I'm probably not going to look at this book very often. The images here are by no means offensive, but most of them lack class, sorry Mr. Fox. This is a great square one. But maybe time, you can try this without the pornographic props. None of these women need dildos or need to make obnoxious poses to be sexy.

This is quite possibly the best put out by Taschen. The photographer has been compared to Elmer Batters. While valid considering they both focused on feet and legs, Fox takes it to a whole new level. The models are gorgeous and the photography nothing short of exquisite. Well done.

This is all I could ask for and more. It's interesting to read about his story and how (like many foot fetishist) have to put up with a lot flak. He goes forward where many of us only dream of going. Much of the work in this book shows Mr. Fox's talent and admiration for the female foot. I'd recommend to erotic book enthusiasts and of course foot lovers. The icing on the cake is the great Dian Hansen starts things out for us nicely.

This was a great book most of the wording is not in English but this book is all about the images. Very good photography by Fox although being a foot man I see that my taste level in feet is definitley different than his so some may not like it. The DVD is an awesome treat though because you get a glimpse of the shoots and I don't know about others but I love seeing behind the scene things. So if your a fan of Fox get it if your a foot fetishist this may be mediorce for you and you might look elsewhere.

I will say I am extremely disappointed in this book for many reasons. For starters the marketing of this item is entirely misleading. The Amazons’ internal SEO, Search Engine Optimization, has this book listed under several keywords it should not: artistic, photography, technique, and boudoir are several that come to mind, for starters. Second, to that the displayed images lead me to believe the “photography” in this book was a journalistic style boudoir with a little bit more sexually aggressive angles. Not! The imagery in this book is purely pornographic in nature, and should be limited, if not removed, to a 21+ grouping. Finally, about the DVD…it was an exclusive to this book. I was disturbed by the imagery and the humiliating acts of the individuals in it. Yes, I watch a portion of it trying to understand what was going on; I’m still confused by it. Side from the section of the written description mentioning “adult film” stars there is no indication of the books content. A lot of amazing photography has been done with adult film stars, this is not one of them. DO NOT WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON THIS BOOK! This book all-in-all is disgusting!

I have been a fan of Ed Fax for years and this book completes my collection. A wonderfully sexy romp with the master of footography as well as photography of some of the most erotic women in the world

...dachte ich ja erst, als ich eine Bilderserie auf stern.online entdeckte. Und irgendwann lag der Bildband in der Buchhandlung aus, und ich konnte mal drin blättern. Guter, fester Einband, Format ca. 30x22 cm, mit 280 Seiten und knapp 30 € bietet er ein gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis, so wie man das vom Taschen-Verlag auch erwartet. Inhaltlich war ich angenehm überrascht: Zwar werden Füße und Beine der sehr ansehnlichen weiblichen Models und Porno-Stars (und -sternchen) schon akzentuiert, ansonsten kommt aber auch der Freund trashiger Porn-Art und anderer provokanter Inzenierungen auf seine Kosten. (Als vergleichbarer Stil fällt mir eigentlich nur Roy Stuart ein, wobei mir seine Werke nie so richtig gefallen haben). Auf jeden Fall nix für Kinder oder Liebhaber der ästhetischen Körperlandschaft-Aktfotografie, sondern fotografisch und handwerklich gut gemachte, deftige Kost. Prima (auch für Nicht-Fußfetischisten wie mich), daher fünf Sterne! Fast hätte ich die beigefügte DVD mit dem Add-On-Material, gegliedert in "Beauty" und "Bad", vergessen....man ahnt es schon: Sich räkelnde Models, Fesselspiele , Dildoeinsatz, im Handkamera-Stil gefilmt...na ja, wer's mag. Verschlechtert den Gesamteindruck aber keinesfalls.

Secondo voi è necessaria una recensione per commentare Ed Fox??? Acquistate il libro e vedete il DVD allegato. Dico solo che è il Migliore nel suo genere.

The legendary photographer who shot all the cover models in the Big Book series has his own book. His interests are feet and he displayed his expressions very well. The models are stunning and beautiful. His passions are remarkably displayed on each of his photo. This book edition is novel size (the original is much larger) so it is easy to carry around. In it has a dvd included, a bonus indeed.

Aviso: no es para niños ni gente puritana Es lo que yo esperaba. el cuerpo femenino en su esplendor, sin ropa ni trucos.

It is not often that a book surpasses my expectations, but this one did so by quite a big margin. You really don't have to be a die-hard foot fetisjist in order to like this publication. The photographer has done a magnificent job. Tipically the Taschen publication is flawless in their best tradition with superb high quality glossy printing. The size of the book does justice to the pictures and what came as a real surpise (and this was not mentioned in the discription of the book), there's a DVD inside the back cover. Now let me tell you, that contents of that DVD alone would warrant the purchase of this book. The short movies are extremely well made, and the gorgeous girls/women stand out by their naturel. No artificial pumped up bodies here. The foot is at the centre of the camera, but again, just like the book, this feature is nowhere too overwhelmingly present. There are some highly arousing, quite explicit scenes but the "foot"age never becomes vulgar. I can only highly recommend this publication from start to finish and it therefore gets full marks without any hesitation!
