Your Family in Pictures by Me Ra Koh

Your Family in Pictures by Me Ra Koh is a small but essential book on how to get good pictures of your family.  How many times have you looked at your kids and said how cute and took a picture just to say to yourself, "that is not how it looked at the time."  Wouldn't you like to have vacation photographs that look more professional?  This book tells how the photographers blur parts of the picture and have it look good instead of a mistake.  It shows how to get the kids to all look like they love each other in a natural way and not forced.  How do you  shoot the generations all in one photo and keep everyone interested?  What is the best time of day to take pictures and if it is not that time what to do to make the picture look good anyway.  This book tells how to take good pictures if you are using a simple point and shoot camera.  It also tells how to best spend you money when you want to go all out and get that once in a lifetime camera that does it all.  These questions and many more are answered in this book.  This book was written by a photo expert on the Nate Berkus Show for 2 years.  She also has her own show on Disney Junior TV so she is no amateur.

I enjoyed this book.  This book should be read by any who just want to take a better picture.  It  is easy to read and tells some of the finer points to taking better pictures of your family.  This is an easy read for the amateur photographer not for people wishing to set up a business.  This is for those wanting good Christmas and birthday pictures.  Most all of us have cameras and would like to take good pictures with it and just don't know what those easy to do differences that can take a shoot of kids to the shot of your kids that you might want to show off to the family and maybe frame for a grouping on your nightstand.
I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.
