He has some interesting ideas about sponsorship and tackling the issue of shooting for free that exercises many in the industry. (Like me, his view is "do it if YOU want" but don't believe the regular lies trotted out by those who are only looking to exploit you.) If I have an issue with this book, it is that David admits that if he was better with words, he probably wouldn't have been a photographer but would have written instead. And in a few places, this shows. The other thing is that he wears his Christian heart on his sleeve, and from time to time this comes over a bit strongly. I also have a bit of an issue with the gap between talking the talk and walking the walk. David talks about "building a visual style" but all his examples (both from his own photography and the selected pros he makes the subject of case studies) seem to be blandly slick. Nothing edgy here. David's own pictures, mainly shot in the Third World, all seem to fall into the category of "poor but happy colourful locals". His advice is good but I think you should follow it rather than take his work as an example.
And in the USA, this is a $45 book! I certainly paid nowhere near that in the UK, even at current exchange rates. And I wouldn't want to. ( )
