Photographing Children Photoshop September 11, 2008
I found this photography book to be informative and beautifully illustrated. One of my favorite pictures is of a new born. It shows only part of the head, a shoulder and curled little hands. We see no clothes or blanket,just soft baby skin. Photo Workshop is a good description. The chapters are complete enough to instill confidence to try the different techniques. The assignments at the end of each chapter are motivating. I would recommend this book to those who are trying to capture the spirit and innocence of children. These techniques also work in capturing a pets personality. I have given this book to each of the parents of my grandchildren,and am looking forward to receiving some great pictures.
Children Photo Tips July 26, 2008
The book was exactly what I was looking for. Help with the how to on the technical side,but was helpful on setting up shots. Looking around my house and seeing how the book would "shoot it" then applying it with my DSLR. Composition and Lighting was extremly helpful to me. This book was well worth my investment.
Very informative July 13, 2008

I've read this book from cover to cover. I love it. As a beginning photographer, this book was very helpful. Not a lot of technical info. Just enough guidance to get me going on my own.
My #1 Photography Book May 8, 2008
9 out of 9 found this review helpful
Having three daughters, documenting their childhood with photographs is a real priority for me. But I really lacked knowledge on how to take good photographs - I always relied on the auto settings on my camera and the pictures seemed so ordinary. In the attempt to learn more about photography, I purchased this book along with a couple of others. This book, by far, was the most helpful for me. I had been having a hard time wrapping my mind around the concepts of aperture and ISO, but this book really helped me understand! Each picture listed the shutter speed, aperture, and ISO, which helped me see what those things were doing to affect how the picture looked. Also, the pictures were so inspiring and gave me tons of ideas on composition. The assignments at the end of each chapter were helpful in developing my skills. The book was very pleasent to read and it's definitely a book for parents aspiring to become better photographers! My only wish was that the pictures also listed what type of lens was used (so that I could buy it and have the lenses that the professionals used!).
Inspirational and informative April 15, 2008

In addition to Ginny's inspirational photography I found this wonderful book to be informative beyond taking portraits of children. I am new to photography and found lots of ideas and tips for taking better photos of any subject. An additional bonus is the assignments at the end of each chapter to put the techniques into practice. This is a book that I will refer to often. I highly recommend this and look forward to more books by this photographer.
