I enjoyed this book on both levels, as a photographer and as an appreciator of fine art. His images showcase excellent lighting and technique as well as mastery of composition. The layout of the book, introducing us to each model really brings us into the person rather than just a subject being photographed. He also is kind enough to let us in on his processes and some of his secrets on how each photo was taken.

"Shared Monents" is a beautiful work on many levels, a project straight from the heart of the photographer. Mr. Gemst's capacity for depicting the beauty and feminine spirit of women is the best I've encountered anywhere. The photographs are vividly fresh and alive with originality, making the viewer return to them over and over again. In addition to astoundingly gorgeous photos, the book is loaded with useful technical information and personal notes from the photographer that add great interest, whether you are working to perfect your own craftsmanship or interested in Mr. Gemst's process. "Shared Moments" is an inspiration for photographers, artists and indeed for anyone who appreciates beauty. It is a very fine work and I am pleased to have it in my personal library. Thank you Eldor Gemst for following your passion and sharing it with the rest of the world. I look forward to more. Theresa Van Ornum Albuquerque, New Mexico

I love how Eldor show the love and respect he has for the female form. His lighting is excellent. His photography skills are equally as good. He has taken the time to let other photographers in on the technical details of each of the images. The layout of Shared Moments has a nice flow to it. This book should be in the library of any studio photographer and anyone that enjoys to look at great photography of interesting women. I look forward to seeing more books from him.
