Other reviews seem to be fake. This book is simply a blog post copied and pasted with little care *by D***N on Reviewed in the United States on September 18, 2016* This is definitely not what I was expecting. I thought I'd be getting a book that went into a little bit of depth into the different types if photography businesses and how to setup each different kind. Instead I received this self-published blog post in print form. With sloppy grammar intact, but unfortunately with hyperlinks NOT intact. In the print form, the hyperlinks appear bold, but have no expanded URL in a footnote or in the back of the book, which would've been handy. See the attached photo for an example of this.Another annoying aspect of this self-published book was that the section headings became detached from their text (I'm sure there's a typographic term for this). The title of one section would appear at the bottom of one page, then you had to actually read the contents of that section by turning the page. Just sloppy. I wish more care had gone into small things like this.More sloppiness: the text is very surface level and quite short, so the entire text has been double-spaced to beef up the page count a bit (see the attached photo). Also, the back cover is quite baffling, as it seems to be an advertisement for a different book, but the more you read, the more you realize that it's actually the back cover intended for an entirely different book (see the other attached photo). The author invites me to "continue reading for even deeper information on Stress Management...". What?!A few good points. The book is a great jumping-off point for photographers, as it explains very briefly the different types of work in photography, and the different things required for each type. Also very briefly, things to keep in mind when starting and promoting your business. These are helpful tips, but I feel like I've read many of these things before online in blog post form. (This is encouraging, maybe I can write my own book on this someday...)On the one hand, I did learn a few things and it would be nice to keep this for reference or to give to other budding photographers, but on the other hand I feel like this was overpriced and very low quality, as it seems like minimal effort was taken to convert an obvious blog post into book form.There is also a crazy amount of fake reviewers for this book. Check the review history (or lack thereof) of all the raving one-sentence 5 star reviews. Very suspicious. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Very average *by D***B on Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2017* I am surprised that a book about starting a photography business would also include a section explaining ISO, shutter speed, and the like. One would think that if you're ready to consider charging for your services, you would already know this.The information is very basic. Not bad, but hardly enlightening. I guess it could be worth the $3 to have it all organized in one book, but you could also easily learn all of this online.I would be surprised if this author is a native English speaker, and if he/she is going to write more books I would strongly recommend hiring a good editor. The language is choppy and, while comprehensible, it does break the reading flow.Overall, I'm sad that I spent money on this book and I can't recommend it unless you've never read a photography or business book before. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Introduction to starting a photo business *by A***A on Reviewed in the United States on April 18, 2018* The book is aimed at someone starting a photography business and answers the following questions:How to find what you photos to takeWhat equipment you must haveLegal aspects of your businessHow to promote your businessHow to copyright your photosBest photo printersHow to create a photo contractHow to encourage reviews of your businessYour competitionThe answers cover these topics at a high level, so this is an introduction to each topic to get someone started. More homework, of course, will be needed for each topic.Ali Julia review --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/31695052-take-a-leap-of-faith-and-start-a-photography-business](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/31695052-take-a-leap-of-faith-and-start-a-photography-business) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-11-05*
