August Bookstagram Challenge

In August, I completed my first Bookstagram challenge.  Well, completed is a strong word.  I participated in my first challenge.  I started late and then missed a few days as life got in the way.  It really was a ton of fun and gave me a chance to play around with my cameras (which I haven’t done in ages) and look at my books in a whole new manner.  Have you ever joined in a bookstagram challenge?  If not, you can learn more about them by visiting here. 

Here are a few of my challenge photos for this month:

Photo Backdrops

I joined a Bookstagram challenge this month (my first!) and will talk about that once the month ends but I wanted to mention the fun I had playing around with my new photo backdrops.  I received four backdrops that have coloring to match a wide variety of books.  I only had about ten minutes to play around with them before work called, but it made everything look so much different.  I’m still quite a newbie at the Bookstagram world but can’t wait for the weekend so I can have more time to practice and play with the backdrops!  Do you have any tips or suggestions about taking book photos?  I’d love to hear them!

A very kind reader recently sent me some photos of 28 Seconds taken beachside in Alicante, Spain.  Since I’m pretty landlocked where I live, it was like letting me take a mini-vacation.  So happy to see the novella being enjoyed out in the big wide world (and what a spectacular setting for the photos!)  Thanks so much for sharing them with me!
