Not as helpful as I would have hopedBy CaraOverall this is a very well written book with excellent example photographs and ideas; it just didnt help ME very much. This book would be perfect for somebody who isnt really a people person and doesnt know what the next step would be to interact with new clients and keep existing ones. I found most of the information in this book to be things I already knew. or things I would have thought of by myself if the situation arose. She gives details on how to tastefully and excitingly present proofs to clients. up selling opportunities. Facebook marketing. maternity and newborn sessions and how to keep the expectant mother and later new mother comfortable and happy. and how to please booth parents and older children in senior photos. To me. and this might be just my age and demographic. all this information is very intuitive and I didnt need a book to tell me. That being said this book might just be a wonderful tool for somebody who really didnt know where to start or interact with people. I would have appreciated some more information on how she got each photo. (lens. exposure information).0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great Compliation for building relationshipsBy BatgirlAlthough I already do most of the things mentioned in this book. I found it helpful in the strategic planning of how to market each session type. Im training my husband to be my assistant and this will be great for him to understand the dynamic strategies of engaging with clients. Hes incredibly shy and likes to just be there without really being noticed. I wish hed stop that lol.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. For beginnersBy ParrotBayHeadVery basic information. doesnt apply specifically to family photography. Someone with any experience whatsoever should look elsewhere. Quick read. dont feel the content is worth the price.
