This trade seems to be flooded with newcomers, and there's a number of authors that are taking advantage of them with publications of all kinds that are high on promise, yet weak on content. This book is NOT one of them. Profiling the techniques and personal philosophies of the trade's top photographers, it offers the Zen of great wedding photography. Inspiring, educating and one of the best stimulators to the creative mind available on the subject today. This is a top notch book with much to offer, even to the experienced professional. A refreshing change, and truly a high-dividend investment to any wedding photographer, regardless of experience level.
Very good book, especially for someone who has never done weddings or done only a few. March 3, 2007

This book has good layout and detail of the photos included. Even though most of the pictures were taken with Nikon cameras, the subject doesn't change, it's still based on shooting weddings.
It starts with the pre-wedding planning and finishes with the album and it's design. (As most of the wedding photography books are) It's a fast read and has some good photos to learn from.
If you were an assistant to a photographer, you probably know more than this book covers, but it's a great start for anyone who's just begining.
 Buy it for the pictures! January 30, 2007

I really loved this book and read it avidly from cover to cover. However I found it pretty light on "technique" To my mind statements such as "it is a good idea to have a selection of white, silver, gold, and black reflectors" or "as your groups get bigger keep your depth of field under control" are a little broad and far too basic to be "technique"...I guess I expected something a bit more technical, though as I write this it seems overly picky. Never mind, it made up for that with the beautiful images, and it was a very interesting read, but it was more of a what you could do than a how to, if you get my meaning. I mean if you don't know which depth of field you should use in a group you probably shouldn't be photographing someones wedding!!
But again it gets top marks for looking at the unstaged philosophy of wedding photojournalism and backing that up with beautiful appropriate images.
