 Amazing breadth and a must read for any aspiring or practicing professional photographer October 16, 2008

In 56 chapters and about 450 pages this book covers the gamut (no pun intended) of issues of what an aspiring or practicing professional photographer might face on the business side of their practice. Personally I would call it a "must read" along with the two other books mentioned below. While this book does not provide great depth in many areas, it does provide great breadth and quite useful depth. I would recommend "Best Business Practices for Photographers by John Harrington" and "The Professional Photographer's Legal Handbook by Nancy Wolff" as companions for this book to give you greater depth on many of the key areas covered in this book. While long in length, it is generally very quick reading. Highly recommended!
 The bible for any working photographer September 15, 2008
David Larson
This is a great reference book on many different issues a professional photographer will encounter in the field.
From pricing and estimating to marketing there are many subjects covered. Like another reviewer commented there is no chapter on taxes which is a huge issue.

The Photographer's Business Bible March 12, 2007

If Your the type of photographer who just wants to shoot nice photos this book may not be for you. But if your trying to start a business as a photographer you may want to strap yourself in. I find that ASMP Professional Business Practices in photography: Sixth Edition is the perfect book to get photographers started in addition to lerning how to run a photo Business in the real world. Some of the contents reenforced what I already knew while other contents helped me with some of my weak points. ASMP Professional Business Practices in photography covers a large specturem of different types of photography and I will no doubt refer to the book in the future.
Sometimes young adults will tell me that they want to become photographers and I just tell them to major in business and minor photography, But if you missed that boat this book is the next best thing.

Every photographer wanting to become pro should get this book! :) For a photography book....it lacks nice pretty pictures. It's mainly just plain text, but good info.
