 Changed my life, literally July 15, 2008
This is such an amazing book on photography. It literally changed my life. I am now a professional photographer working in a field I love. I never knew that I could take beautiful photos until I began using the concepts in this book. It won't take you in depth, but it is a wonderful place to start. Can't wait to see more from the DW group.
 Wonderful Pictures September 13, 2007
I got this book mainly because I liked "Expressions" (by the same authors) very much.
The photos and advice given by Ms. Tyler Jones and Ms. Smylie is very useful for the new photographer and provides some fresh ideas for a photographer who has more experience. Their photos are engaging and instructive. I liked the first half of the book (which is geared more to the nuts and bolts of photography) better than the second half of the book (which demonstrates ways of displaying photos.)
It is true that this book is directed towards film photography, but good advice about how to take excellent photos is the same for digital as it is for film cameras. This book gives good, clear instruction on how to take compelling people photos.
I would have given it 4 stars, except the book binding fell apart the second time I read it through, which made it difficult to read and spoiled my enjoyment.
I gave it 4 instead of 5.... March 27, 2007

because it's a little outdated with all the digital stuff out now...BUT it's awesome for fun photo challenges and how to set up a photo shoot! Great book to include in your photography library.
Designing with Photos January 9, 2007
This book is definitely for the person who knows about aperture, exposure, etc. NOT for the BEGINNER. The book is made very well. Too pricey for the contents, your really paying for the quality of the book. Not as much information as I had hoped for by reading the excerpts before purchasing. If you know about cameras and you don't mind paying more for what you are getting...go ahead and purchase. I would say I was more disappointed than upset.

This book has basic information such as part and functions of the various parts of different types of cameras. It also has in-depth information for experienced photographers such as lighting and conducting a photo shoot. Half of the book contains a variety of creative ways to use your photographs. These projects may be geared toward more experienced photographers but the beginner can alter them to be more simple and work their way up to more advanced techniques. My favorite part of the book is the way it's put together. It is organized nicely yet fun and the language is not too technical. The illustrations and design of the book demonstrates the author's knowledge and passion on photo arts. EXCELLENT BUY if you have a vested interest in photographing children!
