this is a post of love. having recently wrapped up our title, Instant Love: How to Make Magic and Memories with Polaroids {to be released spring 2012}for Chronicle Books last month, i had thought i would have more time to play. that was put on hold for a couple of weeks however, as we've been dealing with a great big pile of all those little things called life that can heap themselves into quite a monstrous little mountain when you're not looking. but everyone is feeling better, i am coming to terms with some other trivial things that have been stressing me out and finally - we {the girls and i} have agreed that happiness needs to reign supreme for the near future.
this weekend we listened to music, took naps, snuggled, watched movies - all while recovering from coughs and sniffles. and we played with magic. the impossible project released the new color film for the 600/680 series polaroid cameras - it's in it's beta version {hence the light splashes and white dots} but from what i have experienced this weekend - i am inspired anew, loving anew and so, so hopeful for the future of this medium which, in truth, is my livelihood. so thank you. thank you to the impossible project for continuing to work diligently to perfect the formulas, help the pioneers hone the craft and just being so damn awesome. i am so grateful to be walking on the long winding road with you on this journey...
