Here’s a resource from an experienced pair of authors, Natasha Martinez and Mark Maryanovich.

Mark Maryanovich is a Professional Photographer based in LA, and he recently wrote a book with his manager Natasha called Photography Business Basics: 10 Years of Photography Business Knowledge in 10 Short Chapters.

The book includes 10 Elements of Professional Images that were compiled after reviewing portfolios for The Photography Institute and The VanArts Institute of Media Arts.
