I had the best week - I was absolutely crazy busy at work; I came in to the office at 6:15 a.m., looked at my watch and it was 3:45 p.m. - time to go. I love days like that. I went out with a like-minded girlfriend for wine and macaroni and cheese last night and gossiped for hours - what bliss! And....now....this weekend....I am taking Monday off and I will polaroid my heart out all weekend (I just got film in the mail - happy days).
I am also feeling a little shy about saying this, but it's just too exciting to not share - I completed my first little, tiny photo book. I got it in the mail this past week and even though I just did it through Blurb, I can't stop looking at it. You can all see it
here. I have it set up so you can see all the pages. I am thinking of doing a more substantial book that will pay homage to my polaroid addiction.
Happy weekend all.

Blurb is fantastic isn't it? I have used it to back up my blog as a book. You should definitely try to do something for sale with your photos, they are great :)

Hope it was a wonderful weekend and that this week is just as fun. Love the look of your book, such a great thing to do.
The book and images are beautiful Raina! I'm pleased that though shy about it, you shared it with us. I've thought more and more lately about doing something similar as a gift for my parents...part straight photography, part a look into our daily lives.
A book! What fun! Work has been like that for me lately too... Have a great weekend.
Your book looks wonderful!!! Congratulations!
It is so beautiful Raina! What a lovely mood the photos evoke. There are so many details that make me smile.
