A must for those who want to really improve their portrait shots. Inspiring for beginners, good reminders for those who are shooting in manual but still need reassurance. Definitely worth buying. I love the samples and the fact that the author speaks in a non-threatening/non-too-technical terms. Appreciate the once in a while shot of humor too. And great links and tips. I just wish that the eBook version has higher resolution photographs.
