What a Photographer Wants - Part 2

Fabric Panoramic Photo Album by LifeStoriesBooks

Animal-friendly materials, high-quality paper inside, and attention to detail and workmanship make Kristin of LifeStoriesBooks' albums something to covet.

Being an armchair shopper these days has its merits and challenges (and is just plain fun AND virtuous). In our first POE blog post dedicated to the cool things a photographer wants and needs, we were challenged by team members Cheree and Meg of BustedKnuckle Photography, to find some animal-friendly photo albums. In addition to finding some excellent albums, we uncovered a few more wonderful things, and here is the result of some searching around on Etsy.com for some good stuff. We are pleased to present the second installment of What a Photographer Wants. And you know you do.
