5.0 out of 5 stars The only wedding photography book you'll need, 29 May 2002
By A Customer
I bought two books on wedding photography, one of which had the word "innovative" in the title, was anything but, and will be returned.

This one, on the other hand, has beautiful, sensitively captured photographs, so moving that they brought tears to my eyes whilst sitting on the bus (and I am not a soppy person).

Good advice about how to get the best out of the wedding party, all the little details that can make your wedding portfolio that much more special than someone else's, and some advice on the more administrative side of being a professional wedding photographer.

Well worth the money.

2.0 out of 5 stars Some useful information, but contrived., 21 Nov 2005
My first impressions of this book was very impressed and much inline with the other reviews here. However with time and having read the book throughly, my respect for the publication waned.

It is in no way a bad book, in the accepted sense, but you just get the impression that the photographer, Bambi Cantrell, is probably not quite as well known and influential as the book makes out. You also get he impression that Kodak and Hasselblad have probably had a hand in bringing the book to the shelves. Whilst I have the greatest of respect for both these organisations, it is irritating that throughout Kodak products are refered to as being simply the only ones to use.

Another irritating aspect is that you get the impression that many of the photographs are set up and not from real weddings - nothing wrong with this at all, but I do have a problem when the tone of the book is insinuating they are all real.

On the plus side I did like the exposure and film emulsion information for each photograph, although I doubt the accuracy if some of it. (like the endless photographs shot with Kodak T-Max 3200ASA exposed at 1600ASA at f1.2 or f2.0 at 1/60 shutter when there are clearly huge windows with daylight pouring in - mabey she had a load of ND on the lens, but it doesn't say this)

In conclusion I think that there are some interesting ideas in this book - but you can pick up a lot of these if you keep up with the latest wedding magazines. I would have been annoyed if I had paid the RRP for this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring Book, 10 Mar 2003
Not a very thick volume, then again it doesn't need to be. The book is pack full of useful tips and ideas of what to look out for in a wedding shoot, the photographs are all first class.

This book is more suitable for advance photographers, you should know your techniques and your equipments inside out, if not, then you will need another book to help you out in those departments. Get this book anyway, it truly is an inspiring read.

I have read the book from cover to cover and have found myself going back to re-read chapters again and again, not because it is difficult to understand, but because it is such a good book. The whole book is well written and illustrated with great photos.

Conclusion: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
