4 out of 5 stars Excellent for Amateur photographers   September 3, 2007
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

As a budding new amateur photographer I thought this book was really good. It's easy to read and follow and is full of fantastic photos. However they say you learn best from your mistakes so I would prefer to see samples of photo's that did not turn out well and an explanation of why and how to overcome them, ideally followed by the improved versions. I do hope there's an "Advanced Beyond Portraiture" version on the way, with said suggestions included.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome   May 15, 2007

Lately there are many many books about photography, which pretend to teach you something, instead going through same stuff over and over again, showing mediocre work.

This book, while isnt revolutionary, scores huge points, not just by way how author approaches us, but also by good photos inside.

Its not just "do it like i do". He is going through whole process of shooting, from ideas on how to approach people (with hints for shy folkz) to hints on post processing.

Hats off to you, mr. Peterson, and thanks for good reading.



2 out of 5 stars If you have read Understanding Exposure - this isn't worth your time   April 4, 2007
 9 out of 14 found this review helpful

Having read, and loved, Understanding Exposure - this book just didn't provide enough new material to be worth the purchase price. The majority of the content is already covered in Understanding Exposure. The new content that discusses how to approach people is the type of information you can learn all about in photography forums for free.
