S. Bender (Ojai, CA United States)
I purchased this book for a friend's birthday and decided to get a copy for myself. I have a great interest in photography and have two small children. This book has wonderful ideas for compostion and easy to understand tips. All of the ideas and suggestions reinforce what I am learning in my basic photography class. I love that each photo includes the manual camera settings that were used.


5 out of 5 stars Great Guide   November 24, 2008

As a beginner photographer, I loved all the information in this book. The assignments were especially fun for me and my daughters. I loved the pictures and it gave me several ideas for creating beautiful family photographs. Since it's the only book in this Photo Workshop series that I've bought, I don't know if they all use this format, but it was very helpful for this new photographer!

H. Carvill (Queensland, Australia)
Love this book! The pictures inside are just gorgeous and information about the camera settings for each picture are included. The book is an easy read and is full of insightful information. There are practice sessions at the end of each chaper too. I can't say that I have taken the time to do any yet, but the suggestions are still great none-the-less.

I highly recommend this book to any avid photographer and aspiring professional photographer. I'd like to get more books in the photoworkshop series.



5 out of 5 stars The best photography book I've read so far...   October 18, 2008
M. Roberts (Central Illinois)
I rarely take the time to write a review for something I buy. But this book has really touched me and enlightened me. It is so well written and organized. I am a mom of six and love taking pictures of my kids. I'm trying to learn more to be able to take really good pictures. This book was so straight-forward. The pictures are REAL - not the strange art-studio type pictures that seem so popular now. I really appreciate that the information is shown for each picture. It's really helped me "see" what differences aperture and shutter speed make. The exercises at the end of each chapter have pushed me to really think about what I'm taking pictures of and stretch my thinking a little more outside the box. I can't wait to complete some of the assignments and upload them to the website. I've bought 6 or 7 photography books on amazon and none compare to this one- its just the best and well worth the money. What I want to know is - does Ginny offer workshops? I would LOVE to attend one if she does!
