Summary

This book is all about the different things photographers do. It goes through a general explanation of what a photographer does--they take pictures professionally and also for fun. It talks about the different types of photographers, where they work, tools they use, and the skills they need. This book also talks about schooling for photographers--they can learn to be a photographer at any age! "Photographers" also discusses the people who help photographers and how photographers help other people. Photographers document people's lives and sometimes can save lives if they take medical pictures.

At the end of this book, there's also a page that teaches you how to make an upside-down picture box. It also has a glossary, some cites and additional resources to go to, as well as an index.
