    This is Real World

    Bought this book after attending one of Sam's Bellies and Babies seminars. This is not a book that you will simply thumb through, pick out a couple of ideas and then shelve it. She includes real world examples, problems and solutions. Not like any other of the photo books I have purchased in the past.
