Summary: WATCH OUT!!!!
Review: I'm a begginer in this field, there is no doubt this is a good book. But, if you are a begginer too, don't buy this one, because it has just 30 pages for "TRICKS & HINTS" out of 160. There are a lot of photographs, but it is a shame there is no explanation on what lences, nor films, nor speed shutter, etc. he is using.
He only talks about "HOW TO DO BUSSINESS", it is good, and about dealing with people (your assistant, your clients), this is usefull too.
By the other hand, I don't think it is more usefull how to packing your equipement than how to take a good photograph.
So, the title of the book has got nothing to do with the content. WATCH OUT!!!

Summary: This book is simply the best of its kind.
Review: It gives you hard won experience from a photographer at the top of his field. From what (and how) to pack for a travelling assignment, to making sure you get paid on time.But not only that, Gary Galadstone gives you the benefit of his creative mind too. How to creatively shoot your way out of tricky situations. Turning potentially hopeless locations into great photographs. I got the impression that Gary was trying to include as much as possible in this book. He could have left loads out and it would still have been a good book. Just buy it, you wont be sorry. I'm sure I'm not the only person to have wished he had read it at the beginning of his career. I found this book so generous with tips, codes of practise and his experience I felt I had to personally thank the author, and THAT doesn't often happen!

Summary: Simply the best instructional photo book on the market today
Review: Many times as I looked at your images I asked myself "how'd he do that?". You were one of the very few photographers I couldn't always figure out exactly how the photo was produced. In your book you not only explained in detail how you did it, but what you charged for it. You imparted more information in 160 pages than I gleened in all my college photography courses and all the books I've studies since that time.

Summary: Best book about Corporate Photography to this date
Review: One of the best books of its kind. Pictures are good, text is good, style is good and even the jokes are good. I rarely saw so much useful information put in such a writing style that it just flows. This is a book worth every penny I spent. I wish there would be more like this one. This book is definitely a must for the corporate shooter. Gary shares some secrets that other photographers would have kept for themselves to stay on top of the competiton. Very generous.

Summary: Great book
Review: This book is full of helpful advice, the majority of the content not about how to take Photos, but how to organise your own business practically. There are a lot of excellent photos in this book, of course, accompanied by the small stories filled with the experiences of a real photographer. But what is even more important are examples of contracts, tips to plan your shooting and advice to get through it. I can highly recommend this book to everyone who is interested in becoming a corporate photographer and wants to know how to manage.

Summary: Awesome book, tons of useful professional information !
Review: This book tells it like it really is for professional photography done on location. It contains tons of very useful information that is not watered down by the publisher. Even an "old dog" like me learned new "tricks" from reading it.And...the "Mystery Lights" rock! Finally a photobook that has more than a pretty cover.

Summary: This is the Stuff They Don't Teach In Schools!
Review: This is just a wonderful book for anybody building a business as a freelance photographer. Gary tells you the inside stuff that many pros even keep from their assistants. The book loaded with real world examples of how problems get solved and how to steer your job planning to keep from getting in trouble later. If you're going to shoot outside your studio, then this book should put your mind at ease with strategies. He walks you through real problems with examples of how to avoid or get out of jams. Gladstone teaches how to think your way through a job. The chapter on assistants is a much read if you're thinking of starting that way. The visuals are great! Makes you want to run out and start shooting. I just love this book. Thanks Gary. Walt Moon
