All About Photo Books – A Must Read

There are many occasions and scenes in our lives which we want to cherish for as long as we stay alive. These are the moments we capture in our cameras, a collection of these photographs taken form a photo album. Today a different form of photo album is in rage. These are called photo books.

In essence they are the same as photo albums. The only difference is that here the photographs are actually printed in the pages. These can be hard cover books with a photo of yours as the cover.

Photo books make excellent gifts on occasions such as wedding ceremony, birth of a baby, birthdays and so on. One can use a particular photo book to mark a particular occasion.

You can use a personalized photo book to preserve the memory of many a happy moment in your life.

These can include:

•Photos of our family

With the recent evolution of digital cameras it has become much easier to take and store photographs. There are also many other items that you can personalize by adding the photos of your family members.

•Photos of your baby

The arrival of a newborn baby is one of the happiest moments in any person’s life. This is the time when we never tire taking photographs of the new born. We want to capture every moment, every movement and every expression. Therefore a customized and personalized photo book makes an ideal gift in such an occasion.

•Photos of wedding

Wedding is another occasion that comes once in our life (well in most cases). Hence most of us want to cherish the happy memories by taking photographs. From the photos of the handsome groom and the lovely bride, to the photographs of all the family members who come to give their blessing we want to capture all in our cameras. Hence a photo book with a photo of the newlywed on the cover is an ideal choice of gift in a wedding ceremony..

•Personal Photographs

A book of personal photos is a thing to cherish. This can be used to capture moments in your son’s life. From the day he was first brought in to the household, the day he smiled for the first time, the day he walked for the first time, his first day at school, his first bike ride, his football matches, his first car, to the day of his graduation. Would it not be simply great to have all these moments and memories captured and stored in a photo book?

•Photographs of holidays

Family outings, holidays and picnic is another such occasion. In today’s fast paced life our near and dear ones seem to spread all around the globe. Family holidays mark the occasion when all of them come together. Hence this is a moment to be cherished forever. These also provide once in a lifetime opportunities to the young members of our families to meet and bond with every member of the family, even the most distant relatives. A photo book is just the thing to use in this occasion.

My Life in Books (Hardcover) $30.75 Bestselling author Pat Conroy acknowledges the books that have shaped him and celebrates the profound effect reading has had on his life. Pat Conroy, the beloved American storyteller, is also a vora­cious reader. He has for years kept a notebook in which he notes words or phrases, just from a love of language. But read­ing for him is not simply a pleasure to be enjoyed in off-hours or a source of inspiration for his own writing. It would hardly be an exaggeration to claim that reading has saved his life, and if not his life then surely his sanity. In My Life in Books, Conroy revisits a life of passionate reading. He includes wonderful anecdotes from his school days, mov­ing accounts of how reading pulled him through dark times, and even lists of books that particularly influenced him at vari­ous stages of his life, including grammar school, high school, and college. Readers will be enchanted with his ruminations on reading and books, and want to own and share this perfect gift book for the holidays. And, come graduation time, My Life in Books will establish itself as a perennial favorite, as did Dr. Seuss’s Oh, the Places You’ll Go!

Photography Unplugged (Hardcover) $33.3 Harald Mante is regarded as one of the outstanding contemporary photographers in Germany. He started out as a travel photographer whose work was published in numerous magazines and books and later taught photography in the tradition of the Bauhaus school of design, applying image and color composition concepts to photography. This book is meant to present the wealth of Mante`s photographic work and at the same time to advocate a pure, straight approach to photography, untouched by digital image editing tools — uncropped and unmodified captures of scenes as seen through the viewfinder. Photography Unplugged is meant to sound a voice which is singing to a slightly different tune than the digital photography choir. Harald Mante`s photographs, all captured on Kodachrome`s legendary slide films, will inspire beginners and expert photographers alike, and will reveal the beauty and magic of masterfully composed photography.
