You must have this book and read it… you will learn something and giving ideas… I do not mind what camera they used but the measurement of lenses is very important… I searched throught out the web site… my conclusion are most of wedding photographer I counted used 35mm, 50mm, 85mm, 100mm and 300mm. My attention is to shot portrait and wedding therefore I bought 50mm and my 85mm is on the way but I could not afford to buy the rest might be the wide lens and zooms

Everyone loved this book, so I bought a copy prior to my daughter’s wedding. I am not a professional photographer. I am a lawyer by trade.
I was disappointed by the lack of any discussion of digital camera techniques. The word “digital” is nowhere to be found in this book’s index. There are many suggested techniques for film and developing, but much of this has no application to the digital realm. The implication of this book is that if you are not using a Hasselblad you are out of tune. I would suggest instead that the writer join the modern world.
Secondly, I was disappointed by the rambling style of the discussion. I know it is likely my professional bias, but I wanted a comprehensive table of contents with a thorough discussion of each point. Instead, the book’s style is more of an informed ramble.
Yes, the book has many pretty pictures. But this is not the up to date and well written book I had hoped for.

Get this one! There are scads of average books out there on every subject in photography. Most are dry, dull and a waste of ink and paper. This one opens a window into the soul of the author (well, the photographer.. I think the actual writer was the co-author.) I have the distinct impression this is an expression of joy and enthusiasm from someone who started by doing what she loved and then slowed down long enough to write about it.

I am very happy with this book. It has beautiful pictures and a lot of great information. Covers everything and the photos are all recent….no huge 80’s veils or big hair. A really good read!
