This book gave great ideas on technique, however the authors style and poor writing take a lot away from his over all validity. This isn’t the first Patrick Rice book that I have read that has great technical input, but just lacked a steady flow. I recommend that he should look into a better editor if he continues to write more books, which I hope he does. He is very talented, just not a strong writer.

Terribly disapointed in the ultra-grainy pictures in this book. Maybe Im spoiled by my converted digital Canon XTi, which gets no graininess at all…. but the pics in this book are terrible.

Many examples of infrared images and a thorough explanation of each one that includes both technical and artistic qualities applied. From cover 2 cover it is great!!!!

As one of the authors, I wanted to create a text that covered the art of infrared photography from the wedding photographer’s point of view.
The images are from real weddings with real Brides and Grooms. Infrared photography provides a “dream-like” look to your images that can not be achieved any other way. I have found infrared wedding photography to be rewarding both artistically and financially. I hope it can do the same for you.

I have read several of Patrick Rice’s books. He is awesome. His books are very educational, and well writen. The way he writes it makes it easy to understand.
His work is the best. I personally love his infrared work best. He is truly inspiring to the rest of us Professional Photographers.
I have had the great pleasure of sitting in on one of his classes. GREAT!!!
I highly suggest you read this book if you are interested in infrared and wedding photography. Then I suggest you read several of his other books.
Especially his new book, Master Guide. You will learn ALOT.
