p.1 #1 · Best Books for Wedding Photography


What book(s) do you highly recommend?

I've seen many posts recommending books specifically on wedding photography. I thought it would be good to have one post to see what others highly recommend since there is so much out there.

I've read a couple myself but those that came recommended have always been invaluable.

Hopefully this will help everyone out.

"The Art Of War" by Sun Tzu.

It is the best book on business you will ever read. Wedding photography is 90% business, 10% photographic talent.

"How to win friends and influnce people" Dale Carneigie Confidenceand Power in dealing with people Les Gibblins. Also any Amhurt publications on wedding lighting and posing. As far as wedding DVD are probably a better learning tool.

Masters and Johnson.

There are a lot of books - some should be avoided as repressive and stifling others are bold of vision and tremendously exciting. I recommend Saudek as a strong learning point.
