Rating:  Summary: Studio Portrait Photography of Children and Babies Review: We are just starting a home-based photography business, and I have purchased many books of various subjects relating to photograhy in the past few months. This is by far one of the best yet, and the only one I've read entirely. The author shares many photographs that give you great ideas for props and poses. The text is very easy to understand, and therefore, not so overwhelming to those of us trying to cram in so much information during the startup of a business. There are suggestions for photographing and dealing with the different stages and ages of babies and children. The discussion on studio equipment is simple and to the point. She takes you through the steps of a portrait sitting, which was very helpful. I could go on and on, but I won't. It's a very good book, and I enjoyed reading it!
