Family Bible


I shot a beautiful family bible today as a favor for a friend. It is nearly 150 years old and will soon be put away to protect it - It was really cool being able to turn through the extremely delicate book and see all of the births and deaths of this family over the last hundred + years. I photographed the entire cover as well as about 20 pages of text and family history. This is to act as a way of preserving history and a way of being able to share it with grandchildren in the future without causing any more damage. It is meant to be a birthday gift for Suzy's father. I hope he likes it.
