We got back from Maine (Mount Desert Island) a few weeks ago but I'm just getting around to looking at the 700 or so shots that I took (forget looking at the shots that Tim took!). I guess this next statement is obvious :), but I love taking photos! I shoot for fun all the time, always have some type of camera attached to me and I usually end up with at least a few hundred shots of random things in a regular week (not on vacation). After working on all my clients photos, I sometimes can get lazy with my own shots. Plus, shooting digital sometimes makes me lazy - I save, archive, backup my files on the computer, but, for awhile, I was not really printing the awesome day-to-day shots that I was getting. So, it an effort to get some of our life off the computer :), I started to make albums for each season or 2x per year with all my favorite everyday, family and travel photos (Summer 2007, Fall/Winter 2008, etc). Its awesome because we already have quite a few albums and look at them all the time. I try to design them with a similar style so they form a small type of library.
Anyway, enough rambling, here are a few of my favorites from Maine (and my next album - Summer 2008). Its so beautiful up there; pretty much impossible to find a less than perfect view anywhere you look (if you are interested, here are my photos from our trip last year).

Hi Jade! Love your Maine pictures. So are you printing individual prints and putting them in a traditional photo album, or are you making Blurb style photo books? I'm trying to figure out what to do with our pictures too.
ReplyDeletei am in love with the Typha and root pictures (I wonder why). I think you need to be throwing some prints my way so I can proudly showcase some Jade originals in my home and office.
