Bookmaking

I absolutely LOVE digital photography, but the only thing that I miss from film, is the hands on, not staring at a computer, part of photography.

So I picked up a hobby over the past few weeks - Bookmaking.

Here's my first book. I loved making it, but even more than that I love the idea that I created the entire project from shooting the images, printing them on my Epson 3800 (the best B-Day present EVER from my wife), trimming, binding, covering, building the box, everything. Just awesome. Now I just need to get REALLY good at it.

Here's the first go. I made a box for the book as well.

I am not offering these to wedding clients, I am only making them as a hobby right now.

Let me know what you think.

The box.


The book in the box.


The binding.


The book upright.


The pages fanned.
