I love taking photos on the street or in nature. I usually post the result on social media sites such as Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook. Sometimes I also submit it on more specific photography sites like 500px or Unsplash. But, I have felt bored showcasing my photographs in that way. I need a different way to showcase my pictures.
In the last summer of 2022, I took online photography courses to broaden my knowledge in that area. The course taught me about showcasing photos. Not only by using social media but also by printing it into a book. By making a book and arranging pictures in a sequence, I can tell the story and the journey behind it.
I decided to make my first photo book project from my September bicycle ride in Naissaar. Naissaar is an island northwest of Tallinn, Estonia. I carefully curated all pictures, arranged them into a sequence, and designed the photo book layout. Moreover, I also hired my friend to be my content writer and editor. She wrote an introduction text and some picture descriptions.
In the end, I distribute the book in digital format too. So, you can also enjoy it easily. You can buy it from Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Gumroad. There is a free sample of the book on Amazon Kindle and Apple Books.
P.s. if you want the printed version, you can order it by mailing me at asep@chloematt.com. I can print it on demand. The printed version is the best experience to enjoy all pictures.
