It’s a Book!

After months of writing, editing, and research, my first book is now available. Rather than go through traditional publishing, I chose to publish via Lulu.com, and now you can buy it in paperback or PDF form. Whew!
This book is best suited to student and emerging photographers, though pros with more experience may pick up some ideas as well. It is written in a very accessible style, because, as we all know, photographers can often get bored when reading lots of business stuff. It’s funny in places, and, as you might expect from me, pretty straight-forward.
One important note: this is not an in-depth analysis of the business. Instead it covers the basics on many important issues like copyright, paperwork, business entity types, marketing, profits, and more. I thought this was the best approach because students (not all, but most) have not been getting the basics in their coursework. This book will fill in a lot of those big blanks–giving them what they need to get started and offers other places to get more in-depth answers.

Thanks for all the encouragement in the writing of this book and your patience in waiting for its release. Now tell your friends and colleagues about it, especially those who teach the next generation!
