The book has began, and I think its safe to say that it is actually coming together quite nicely. I did use the book smart program but I feel like I got the chance to use my own ideas in it. I didn't feel like everything was laid out for me.
I think I am going to be happy with my results, I am almost but not completely finished. My backgrounds for the entire book is black and my copy is all white. The pictures I included in the book are black and white. I feel I have a simple but clean to feel to the book.

the begining of the book
I had a few ideas for my book starting out. Some very typical, some not so typical. I started brainstorming with things I was interested in. My first ideas were a craft book, cook book, environmental book, or photography. I wanted something out of the norm, something original.
I have always liked taking pictures so I thought it would be cool to have the chance to explore my picture taking abilities, or more so explore different views of looking at things.
I got the idea to take pictures of peoples faces. Many different types of people. I think a face is something memorable and makes a statement. I want to have different definitions of the word face in the begining of the book, then throughout the book I will have different photographs of peoples faces and either have a poem, or sort of tell a story to bring all the photographs together.
My cover though I want to be covered in different pictures of peoples faces and then in the top corner have the title of the book be the word face.
I think it will be a challenge and I hope it works out as I hope it will.
