Key moments in life -- graduations, award ceremonies, prom nights, parties, visits from far-flung friends, and so many more -- deserve to be recorded in images of the highest quality.
Jonathan Hilton has put together a number of wonderful photography books for the Pro-Photo series, and Special Occasions Photography is one of the best. Though it does not include a great deal of technical information (especially for digital photographers), he does illustrate the book with exquisite photographs of a variety of occasions. The sports photography section includes not just professionals, but amateurs as well. There are also wonderful shots of weddings, religious ceremonies, and portraits. Though the technical information is scant, the photographs will inspire fellow photographers to go out and creatively capture people at all sorts of moments and record it on film (or digitally).
