Informative Read!

Learned a lot about how to start my own business centered around portrait parties. A clever idea I would never have come up with on my own. Glad I checked this one out. Picked up a bunch of valuable tips.

Very Good

It was simple and easy to understand. It is a good place for people just breaking out into business.

Must Have.

The information contained in this book is just as easy to digest and implement. The author takes all the mystery and fear out of taking the first step and every step after that to becoming your own boss in your own photography business. It's written to fit anyone's personal situation and filled with so many unique ideas that if you just follow what it says, there's no reason why you can't be out finding a client base immediately.

Decent read

This book was ok for me. I was looking for something more in depth. Everything mentioned in here I wither have already done or know to do when it's time. It's very basic. Great if you really are JUST starting. I guess I'm a little further than I thought. I did appreciate the author mentioning businesses he uses for the frames, website, etc. Over all it's a good book, just too simplified for what I need.

Good for the beginner just getting started

Good for the beginner transitioning from Harvey to small business. I can like how quickly gets to the point and doesn’t spend too much time over there little details because it will vary from reader to reader of where thy are in there journey. I also very much like that you list specific products and brands to help Photogropher decide where to start. I personally am a little more into my journey and need something a little more wish i found this book when I started 4 years ago would have save me some time.
