Summary: A MUST HAVE FOR SERIOUS PHOTOGRAPHERS
Comment: In his new book, "Photo Portfolio Success", John Kaplan has created the most comprehensive, current, in depth and honest book for photographers who may be hoping to get their foot in the door, for those where the door is already open, and even the lucky ones with an all-season pass in the competitive and rewarding field of photography. This book debunks every myth you thought you knew and tells it like it is from the very top people working in photography today. A literary device using pull-out quotes from top photographers, editors and even New York photo agents subtitled: "Your Biggest Mistake", and "Your Best Move" also gives the reader more honest guidance of what they really need to know to succeed in an often cutthroat business. Here's a nugget from Detroit Free Press photographer J. Kyle Keener: "Don't show something in your portfolio that you can't do consistently." It's honesty like this that helps photographers get to the next level. Kaplan's book scales several mountain ranges with advice every sane person really needs to know if they want to keep a roof over their heads in making a living at photography.
In 13 chapters, this book covers all the bases and genres of photography and everything you need to know to get a running start. Photojournalism, wedding photography, freelance and commercial work, nature and wildlife, fine art photography and the extremely important areas of marketing and self-promotion are all covered. Detailed yet easy-to understand methods of building your own web page to promote your photography business are included. Necessary links to various companies providing presentation material like portfolio cases are also here. The book is well designed and beautifully illustrated with examples of some of the finest photography being done in the world today.
I think the really nice thing about this book is the underlying encouragement that Kaplan offers the reader throughout. Reviewing as a professional photographer myself, Photo Portfolio Success gave me a renewed sense of vigor and honest assesment of where I need to go in this crazy yet wonderful career of photography.
