Uh, yeah... she got her marketing in there, alright. In between the marketing there are some good tips. :-)

That is true.

BTW I came across your portfolio on Flickr. Nice stuff you have there :D

Thanks... I really don't have much out there (still debating whether I want to pay $25/year to another web site). But hook me up as a contact!

Hmm, fairly useful for beginners i guess.

Does anybody know if she has a book or something i could buy?

I disagree with 20% of what she says, but I only saw half of it since it ends just into #5.

I disagree with #4. You often donĂ¢€™t get real expressions from your subjects when you use Red Eye reduction. You often get that startled look, especially with young children and older adults. DonĂ¢€™t use the on camera flash. Use bounced flash. It gives better light on the face too.

I agree with you (about the bounced flash). But she's probably targeting her message to those who have P&S cameras, who can't swivel or bounce their light anyway.
