The Book Format

I have always found that photographs work beautifully when presented in a book.
Recently I have been researching and exploring this idea, which has resulted in the production of some very individual books.

There is a book of tabletops; my theory is that tabletops reflect what is going on in a household, as well as being unintentional still-lives in their own right.

There is the family album book. Having produced one of my own family I have gone on to other families. I record not only portraits but the everyday life in your home, as well as the details that make your house unique.
There is also the wedding book, a practical and longlasting way of displaying photographs. The book format seems to be easier to pass round to friends and doesn't get put away in the loft so readily.

As seems to be usual with me I have many more ideas so there will be more books to follow.

The books are approx 20cm X 20cm with 40-50 pages. They are available as hard or softback, and use archival inks.
