Editorial Reviews
Review
The book is ideal for someone who is a complete novice to using the iPad, and wants to use it more in their photography. Steps are very easy to follow, and Derrick′s style of writing is very casual, making the book seem less formal and more friendly in its guidance. (ePHOTOzine, May 2013)
A great book on a great piece of technology′ (Burton Mail, June 2013)
From the Back Cover
The iPad is:
A. A portable portfolio
B. An on–the–go editing tool
C. An appointment book
D. All of the above
You know the answer is always “D.” And for photographers, the iPad is even more. With an iPad, a camera, and a few accessories, you can pack your own personal photo lab, art studio, publishing machine, movie theater, and personal organizer into a small backpack…and still have room for lunch.
Derrick Story has learned to travel lighter, be more self–reliant, get fabulous photos or movies anywhere, store and share them in minutes, even manage model releases and accept credit card payments with his iPad. He′ll tell you how, right here, right now.
