Rating: 5 out of 5 Whether you are a professional or a soccer-mom, this book is a wonderful resource for anyone interested in making better portraits of kids. We liked it so much we invited Vik to come teach an online photo course on the same subject. Whether you buy the book or take the course, you'll be very glad you did. 5/30/2003 4:58:47 PM
