Excellent advice but images are technically weak - By: Fazal Ali, 07 Oct 2008 
I really like the sound advicein this book. I think the author's experience photographing different types of weddings becomes apparentin this book. For example, he explains how it's important to look out for larger than life charactersin weddings, & to follow them as this potentially makes for memorable images. His advice is not snobbish, & he inspires confidence that with practice, effort & business sense, many people could earn a living shooting weddings. The main weak point of the book is a lack of inspiring images, which is strange, as he has a brilliant web portfolio.
The ideal wedding photography reference book - By: Tim, 18 Nov 2007 
This book is logically organised & says what you need to knowin a very concise, readable manner. It is therefore ideal for dipping into whenever you want a refresher on a particular topic, & makes a great lunchtime read.
The sections about the types of shots required at different times during the wedding day are particularly useful, as is the excellent advice on indoor & outdoor lighting & related flash techniques.
The book covers many other subjects such as workflow & backup techniques, JPEG vs RAW, & even some basics on setting up a wedding photography business.
If you don't have any books on wedding photography yet, this one makes an ideal reference guide & central book to your collection.
Excellent beginner book - By: Marc Tomas, 17 Sep 2007 This book covers a quite a bit. The information is clear & not too technical. I feel a little too much was dedicated to vacation weddings, but that's what the author specializes in. Allin all a good read with very good pointers
Superb wedding photography book - By: D. L. Doyle, 07 Feb 2007 I am a keen hobbyist moving up to weekend wedding photography & I found this book to be superb. It is easy to read, informative, well laid out & has loads & loads of relevant information. I can't speak for professional experienced photographers but would imagine from the content that they would find this very useful too. If you are like me, a budding weekend wedding photographer, this book is absolutely superb. I have bought several books similar & found "Capture the moment" good but this is a must have. Well done Glen Johnson on a superb first book - it helped me a lot.
Excellent! - By: J. Tremlett, 02 Sep 2006 The book is great it covers everything you could want to know about wedding photography. It even includes things you didn't even know you needed to know! It is the most useful book on Wedding photography I have found (and I have been through a few!). If only I had found it earlier I would be richer & wiser.
If there is any criticism at all it is that some if it is a little Americanised, but that is understandable due to the American author & since there isn't a British version I will happily live with it.
