Great Book for Portrait Photographers

This book is a must for photographers wanting to specialize in pregnant families. Jennifer's descriptions are invaluable in the set up and photographing of pregnant moms and their families for both ambient and studio lighting. As a portrait photographer, I attended one of Jennifer's classes and purchased the book as well. Bravo, I have used her techniques and advice and created some beautiful portraits of new and expectant moms. She emphasizes the importance of a relaxing environment and working with the moms to get the best results. I highly recommend this book for photographers interested in this niche. Her final portraits are works of art and remind me of renaissance paintings.

Very Good Textbook

This is a very good book that covers the topic of pregnancy photography. The book is richly illustrated with creative maternity images. What I especially liked the integration of the Fathers and siblings in many of the images.

Artistic Images

I continue to gain insight from this book. The contemplative, tranquil images inspire creativity, as one gains insight to the photographer's perspective and expertise. Her frankness in sharing technical skills both behind the camera and in her use of Photo-shop and marketing is extremely helpful to any professional or aspiring photographer. I highly recommend this book if you are interested in taking your photography to the next level or just searching for inspiration.
