One of My Favorite Books September 21, 2010
By LSchaaf
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I love this book, and recommend it to everyone who is starting a photography business, whether home-based, location-only, or studio-based. It has some great advice that sometimes goes against all the photographic marketing gurus, but I think it's much more realistic in pricing and marketing than some of the other stuff out there! My favorite tidbit? Your goal as a new photographer should be shoot your first 100 clients, paid, free, however you do it, that should be your goal for experience! It's so true!
