A few problems to take care of: - "His photography business was not the only one established in the area during this time period." -> This is a little vague as to what it's trying to imply. Did he have competition? Was the photography business booming at the time? - "A blue velvet book covered with gold and diamonds covering the performance was presented as a gift on the occasion..." -> I'm assuming the book had Cephas work in it, but that's not very clear. I also think you should remove "covered with gold and diamonds" to make it more coherent. - I was bold and fixed a few other issues related to MoS and structure.
- Are you able to provide quotes for your citations? It would be appreciated, but I'll take your word for your claims if you can't. - ISBNs for your final two book references are the same.
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
- "This allowed the subjects to be photographed more quickly rather than having to remain still for several moments." -> I don't think details relating to his camera's shutter speed (aside from the shutter speed itself) is really relevant. - Final two sentences in "Personal life" seem irrelevant to Cephas, but seeing the lack of an article (or future article, for that matter) for them, I suppose it's fine.
"Although both Cephas and his son were accomplished court photographers, Cephas was the most important of the two..." -> I'm unable to access the source, so this sounds a little non-neutral. Care to offer a quote?
It is stable.
