<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tom B, post: 2145162, member: 11854&quot;]Though I have been involved in photography myself, off and on, since the late 1970s, I can&#039;t claim to have been clever enough to start this niche.&nbsp; There are, however, at least two wonderful books on the subject.&nbsp; One by Gerald Hoberman titled <i>The Art of Coins and Their Photography</i> and the other by my friend Mark Goodman aptly titled <i>Numismatic Photography</i>.&nbsp; The Hoberman book might be from the 1970s so it is getting a bit long in the tooth while the Goodman book is recent.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some people go to photographers for family portraits because they do not want to take them on their own or they do not want to invest in the equipment; some people buy vegetables at a farmer&#039;s market because they are not inclined to grow their own; some folks go to a local mechanic or Midas shop to get the oil changed in their car because they might have no interest in doing so themselves while others use a photographer for images of their coins for the same, or similar reasons.&nbsp; It&#039;s just a service that many folks offer to various degrees of thoroughness.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
