This is a GREAT book about photographing children. I have read many photography books in the past few months and this one is by far the best. It has made such a difference already in how I photograph my daughter.

This is an excellent primer on photography in general. But what better way to inform and bless all the precious moments that lie ahead for the new mom and dad? This book is easy to read and drives home the points with excellent examples. In my opinion it’s one of the ultimate baby blessings. Since I discovered this book this year, I’ve given three copies to new parents and it has been a tremendous hit.

I received this book last Christmas from my husband as an accompaniment to my new camera. Although I had read several books on photography the previous year, none inspired me quite as much as this one! I read the book quickly because it was well written in simple terms that just made sense. Later I went back and read each chapter more in depth to try to solidify the principles in my mind. And while I did want to learn how to take better photographs of children, Ginny’s book taught me much more than that. It taught me timeless photography “rules” that help me constantly when photographing anything. The greatest lesson I’ve learned is “seeing the light” which has changed the way I photograph.
In addition to the fantastic book, I’ve had the privilege to be a part of a Facebook group by the same name. Ginny, as well and many other photographers, contribute to make it a great forum for gaining helpful feedback on photographs of children. It has allowed me to directly see the principles outlined in “Photographing Children” in action both in my own work and in others. Why don’t you join us!

This book is wonderful. I am by no means a professional photographer, I did take a photography class in high school and have always enjoyed photography and taking pictures. After having children, I wanted to improve my skills. I bought a new SLR camera to improve the quality of my pictures. This book has helped me understand a lot of the functions of my camera, what differnt setting to use to get the look that I want out of a pictures. It has great assignments at the end of each chapter to help comfirm what you have read. I have run around the house after my kids using the techniques I learned in this book. While I still have along way to go, I already can see a difference in my pictures. I bought a couple of other books with this one and this is by far the best. I think anyone wanting to improve their knowledge on their camera and on the skill of photography would benefit from this.
