Summary: Very Comprehensive
Comment: Covers many different markets and not only features the author's work and advice, but includes other published photographers as well. Answers a lot of basic questions and puts stock photography in a realistic light. You probably won't get rich and it will take several years for your photos to generate some money but Frost views stock photography more like an investment than a get-rich-quick scheme.
Overall, worth the money if you are thinking of getting into stock photography.
Rating: 4
Summary: Pretty good
Comment: The book is fairly good, but it doesn't really give you too much fresh information that isn't already out there, other than some specific web sites to go and look at. But, if you don't already have access to that kind of information it is probably a great purchase to make.
Rating: 5
Summary: The straight scoop
Comment: As other reviewers before this one have already stated, this is the bible for free lance photography. It tells you what to shoot and how to market your work. It also becomes apparent as one reads this book that there is a lot of extra work, and a lot of expense, involved in this business. It's maybe 25% taking pictures with the other 75% taken up with preparation, sales and marketing, bookkeeping, etc.It involves taking thousands of pictures and keeping them on file with a picture library. There are pointers from professionals on what sells and how they work. Several, believe it or not, manage to do it while holding down a full time job elsewhere.As for expense, many shots you will have to taken with a medium format system if you hope to find a market; lots and lots of film; computer programs; labels, etc.If you're planning a career in this business, read this book first. Lee Frost will tell you exactly what you are up against.
