Book Reviews of The Art of Wedding Photography: Professional Techniques with Style
Book Review: Excellent Primer for the Budding Wedding Photographer
Summary: 5 Stars
The images in this book are very inspiring. Studying the imagery alone is very educational.
A constant student of light and photography, this was my first book on Wedding Photography. After reading it, my wishlist grew to include more lenses, camera bodies and flash units. And my photo-journalistic wedding photography improved (results may vary ;)
This book will have you thinking more about contemporary, artistic and moody images to be captured on the Wedding day. You'll also begin thinking about your services and the value you can offer your clients. This book will have you thinking about adding an assistant to your list of must-haves for every Wedding job--an assistant who understands your vision and goals for the wedding day adds so much to the quality and quantity of images you can take on that day which (hopefully) is a once-in-a-lifetime event for your clients.
This book does not cover so much about Engagement photos, group formals, or the marketing of your services (although these topics are covered briefly).
I also recommend "The Best of Wedding Photography" by Bill Hurter.
