This book offers some very helpful photographing tips for those who are new to social media or just want to up their game a bit. Taking good pictures for social media can be tricky. I love that the author takes the readers through various steps and technique tips to help them create better photos for social media. Sometimes, having a photo plan can make the difference in the quality of the shot.This is a really cool book with helpful technical information about shooting photos with different types of cameras and setting up interesting compositions. It also explains a lot about lighting and how to use it to shoot interesting photos of people, places and things.

I gave it a 4 stars for the beautiful presentation of the pages, pictures - a wonderful book to look at. I particularly liked the 'Blogger Spotlights" - which introduce you to a blogger that specializes in certain type of picture taking, such as Food, Animals (cats), Kids/Life, Nature, Fashion, Celebrations. I checked out the bloggers websites and followed couple on Twitter as they produce beautifully unique art - Favorite - Oana Bafort & Guremike (Japanese with beautiful, natural cat photography).I liked this book b/u of it basic approach. My husband is much more experienced in photography and his books overwhelm me.I do agree with another reviewer -- the title is a bit misleading 'Picture Perfect Social Media' - it seems like all the references to social media are indirect rather than direct steps to take a good selfie for example, which is what I expected. Although I did not get what I requested (I requested it from my library based on the title), it introduced me to other very interesting materials.I do 'judge' books by the way they look and feel and I like this book very much. The 7X9 size of the book feels so great in your hands, and the beautiful font and feel of the pages, makes it a pleasure to browse through. But for any selfie help...you need to look elsewhere...;-)@AkaAki157
I have enjoyed this book. With all the social media apps and blogs photography especially phone photography plays an important role. My girls take pictures of there food especially their desserts. It's a way to document everyday and important times and share them. But, it's not just taking any old picture. Styling is what makes your photo stand out. The first few chapters discusses camera types. The next few chapters talk about aperture, white balance, composition, color, props, backgrounds and details. The rest of the book covers the types of photos covered by photographers like food, travel, fashion, interiors and more. Basically what the book over says a handbook for styling perfect photos for posting, blogging and sharing. Just wished it was available in kindle format for on the go reading.
This book covered more on the photography aspects, basics like rule of thirds etc. Instead of photography as far as marketing and commercial arts for blogging.
for beginners.. nice sample photos...
