Title: Read if You Know Nothing About Photog/Computers/Business
Review: Reading through this book was very disappointing to me as a beginning photographer. The book does not deliver what is promised on the back cover or introduction. The author glosses over each topic but never actually gives any information that isn't already common knowledge. The computer information is very vague and outdated, the home business chapter spends time on balancing family/photo/part-time wants and not setting up in your home office specific to photography, the model posing and lighting section gives about five pointers that if you haven't already learned them -- you are really only just thinking of being a photographer, finding models has never been a problem so that part and the two "legal" contracts were useless to me. Keep searching there are bound to be more informative books on the subject. The book lacks focus in relation to the title. I feel like I got hooked by the title and didn't learn what I bought the book for.
