So I bought the complete Digital bundle a day or so ago. I started with the photography Book, being a beginner photographer and youtuber, and HOLY CRAP!!!! I am blown away by how well this is laid out. The examples are completely clear and the explanations are concise. I am only half way through the book and I have learned more about my camera in the time it took me to drink a cup of coffee than I have in the 4 months i have had the camera. If the others i purchased are half as good as this one, they are worth every penny. Thanks.

Wonderful introduction to cosplay photography, for begginers and not so begginers. The posing parts helps tremendously, for us the camera shy people.

Much like Tyrannix, I found this a great beginner overview that lacked finer details to take it beyond a photography primer. It’s very much written for first-timers who need direction and confidence, and spreads itself over many aspects, leaving it unable to go into finer detail much of the time (the makeup section in particular). The anecdotes are thoughtful and the presentation is fantastic, I just find I would be willing to pay more to have a more comprehensive book.

Not gonna lie, I’m disappointed.
Pros:
– Very easy to read
– Good visual aids
– I enjoyed the teamwork section
Cons:
– most information is so basic You can find it ANYWHERE
– the editing section is a joke. The book could just skip it. Only someone who NEVER had anything to do with anykind of software would find it useful and even that is a stretch
Overall:
The book isn’t bad per se. But it is very basic. I like the easy to read way of writing and the personal experience parts. That said if You have at least basic knowledge about photography, posing and postproduction… It’s not very useful.
Still, it can be a nice source of information for beginners.

Thanks for your feedback. I’m sorry you’re disappointed. We made this book specifically for people who have not tried photography before but maybe we didn’t communicate this good enough. I hope you still found some enjoyment reading it! <3
