 Love this book July 1, 2008
Sandy's tips and tricks are as wonderful as her final images. I have already implemented some of her marketing ideas and product suggestions, as well as, some of her lighting technique. I am just starting out but it is already working.
Great read for sure!
Who do you want to be when you grow up? June 16, 2008
I'm not saying I want to be Sandy, but I do want to be a children's photographer one day. Sandy has lots of useful information in her book. She is very down to earth and the reader can tell she absolutely loves what she does.
The information in the book is helpful and informative, but I don't know that I learned a lot. Although there are some great pictures, it's not necessarily a posing book. There are some great tips for what/how to photograph children of different ages.
You'll read this more than once. June 5, 2008
Tired of buying photography books that cover the same old stuff? Have you ever purchased a posing book that shows you a picture of a camera, softbox, umbrella and a reflector and then proceeds to show you a gallery of someone's photographs. Where do those books reside now? I have a ton of them sitting on a remote bookshelf, covered with dust. Well, Sandy Puc's book is a little different. Sure, she shows you the equipment, but, it is the equipment that she uses everyday and she explains why she prefers this equipment. The book proceeds through different age groups, yes showing you her photography, however she goes into the process behind the shots, both mentally and physically. This book covers real-life photography experiences, the joys, successes and also the pitfalls with solutions. I am now anxiously awaiting the release of her new book on Bellies and Babies.
