I consider this a good book but not a great book on the subject. Have some valuable information so I gave it four stars.

I always approach this type of book by looking firstly at the images and then reading the details. The images in this book are inspirational and of a high quality. I know from personal experience just how hard wedding photography can be and I think Bill has done a good job with this book. It always helps to have such beautiful women to photograph and Bill's photojournalistic approach works well - the candid images are very good. I enjoyed the written explanations, but I am left with the slight feeling that more diagrams and photos of the techniques could have made this book really outstanding. A great advert for the photographer though and well worth buying! (most of which I have said about his other books on wedding photography!)

An easy reading and resourceful book for developing the skills necessary for a successful wedding photojournalistic photographer. I enjoyed reading about how this type of photography requires the photographer to be an emotion detector and storyteller of the day. Elements on how this is achieved is brought to light in areas such as preparation, anticipation, reaction, knowing when to interact and when not to. Other strong points are techniques given and wonderful images. A great book suitable for just about any photographer involved with weddings.
