This guide for professional wedding photographers introduces and explains the many uses of Adobe Photoshop in correcting and enhancing wedding photos to improve client satisfaction and boost sales. Photographers learn how to correct image color; remove blemishes and wrinkles; change backgrounds to eliminate distractions or add special effects; create the look of sepia-toned images; selectively tint eyes, lips, and bouquets with digital hand-coloring techniques; and create watercolor images. Tips for using Photoshop for business promotion are also provided, including instructions for creating effective mailers and business cards and putting enhanced images on the web to attract new clients.

    Wrong Title Dissapointing ... I bought this book and find how far is the content compared with the title. It should have been "A Brief Introduction to Adobe Photoshop from A Wedding Photographer". The book is just too basic.
    A waste of money This book should be entitled: "Basic Photoshop for wedding photographers". A complete waste of money with simple and cheesy effects. I am very disappointed as the methods in this book will not suit todays high expectations in the wedding market. The book looks like it would apply to the mid 1980's. Very simple and basic instruction methods, taught me absoulutely nothing that I don't already know!
    Shallow coverage - Maybe okay for beginners I have to agree with R. Chester's review. I found the book to be very shallow, almost like the authors were intentionally holding back information so as to not arm their competitors. For example, on page 92, under the heading of PHOTOSHOP TECHNIQUE, there is an interesting picture of a bride, groom and a young child standing on a bridge. Very nice, but no technique is supplied. The authors refer you to page 117 for more on this image but alas, no technique there either.
I bought the book to generate some ideas as I'm new to portrait post processing. I learned a little about vignettes, converting to black and white, selective coloring, all very basic stuff. I found better info by doing a search on the web and perusing tutorial sites.
    read in 15 minutes this publisher has a habbit of using the same pictures and tachniques in a number of books and then re packaging for a different audience. I read the book in no time and lernt nothing I'll probarlly never pick it up again
    Excellent book for wedding photographers Rick and Deborah Ferro have created a wonderful book showing how to best utilize Adobe Photoshop as a wedding photographer. Being practicing wedding photographers, they were able to highlight the important aspects of this complicated program and leave out some applications that you would never use.
As with all of their books, the images are first class and inspirational. It is well worth the money
