So I've got this book...

[El Dave]

After going over my proof copy, I'm proud to say my first photo book, Life in Plastic, is finished.

Life in Plastic, Vol. 1 is the culmination of three years of work, from the first decision to take pictures of my toys up until the very end of 2008. Featuring over seventy full color photographs on beautiful glossy paper, Life in Plastic is 41 pages of 8.5" x 11" photobook goodness.

With a foreward by David "Man of 1,000 Podcasts" Price, it is everything I hoped for and then some. All this for just $35!

Please allow 1-2 weeks for delivery, due to the nature of print on demand publishing. You order the book and they print it special for you, then it arrives on your doorstep! Now, because I have had requests for personalized copies, you can email me directly: david . mathis [at] gmail . com and I will put in the order for you, personalize it, then ship it.

Woo-hoo!  My copy arrived today!  Just read Mr. Price's foreword and Mr. Mathis' introduction.  Good stuff!  Can't wait 'til I have some time to sit down with my full attention and soak in all the photo-y goodness!

Congratulations, Dave!

Congrats to both Dave and David

Is this kind of a coffee table book? Dave, was this about marrying your love of photography with your love of toys?

It is more a traditional photobook. There is David's foreword, my little intro, and the rest of the pages are photos. All killer, no filler!

My girlfriend April is responsible for really getting me into photography, but she takes pictures of flowers and pretty things that I'm not particularly interested in. My toys were the first thing I found that I enjoyed photographing and, over time, I've been able to apply what I've learned to other subjects. So my interest in photography led to me rediscovering my love of toys and vice versa.
