I have just published my third printed booklet of black and white photographs — the second in my “Portfolio Series” — which is a series of small booklets focused on a single subject, designed to be affordable yet beautiful.
Printed book
The South Dakota Portfolio is the result of my 2024 road trip through the U.S. state of South Dakota, a landscape that really resonated with me on many levels. I was moved deeply by the history, the landscapes, and the tumultuous skies.
The printed booklet is self-published and can be purchased on my main website, or you can buy it directly from Blurb here. It includes 24 pages, with an abstract introduction that I wrote to express how the history, weather, and terrain all worked together to influence my images of this rugged and wide-open region.
Subject matter of the photographs includes landscapes, stormy skies, abandoned buildings, ghost towns, and more.
By necessity, the printed document was kept at 24 pages to keep the sale price affordable, but there are many more portfolio images than would fit cleanly into the design of the printed piece. Some of those were included as extra content in the digital version.
The printed booklet costs $18.00 (at time of this posting) and shipping is free inside the U.S.
Digital version
The format of the digital e-book version was redesigned to work better on digital screens, and includes more pages and more images than the printed book. It can be downloaded for $6.99 from my website.
