I talks about basic business stuff and how to approach a shoot. Good for someone getting started with photography

[Corina · Rating 4 out of 5]

Pretty valuable life advice for passionate photographers. I recommend it for a better understanding of this world which is built of way much more than passion and talent.

Great design, but some of advice was just common sense.

[Steven · Rating 2 out of 5]

Kind of lame ! Common knowledge and common sense was rampant in this book!i hardly ever regret buying a photo help book but this one was just a yawn and no originality !!

[Jassen Jackman · Rating 3 out of 5]

A practical and current collection of recommendations which should be useful for any novice. Lots of common sense issues but nothing in great depth.
