Introducing Water's Edge

INTRODUCING WATER’S EDGE, A PHOTOGRAPHIC ART BOOK BY STUDIO ALBERTINE

Since moving to the PNW in fall 2018, I’ve been capturing, processing and curating thousands upon thousands of images across Washington and Oregon, chasing views of seas, sounds, falls, lakes, rivers, and reservoirs - and especially the thrilling sense of personal insignificance that they tend to inspire. These curated images have now become Water’s Edge.

While a proper site page is under construction and yet to be published, I wanted to use the blog for an initial party post about finally having brought this 5+ year project to a point where it feels to me finally complete.

Water’s Edge comes in landscape hardcover format, storm gray linen-bound, with a glossy dust jacket. It features 88 full-color pages and is ready to grace any coffee table or home library shelf. While it is not yet available for purchase online, after this weekend’s book deliveries, in the days to come it will be available in select indie bookstores local to Seattle, Washington.

NOW DELIVERED TO select brick-and-mortar stores in the Seattle area, AND ON SALE SOON:

Taco(ma) Time

In July we moved to a cool 1970s house atop a hill on Seattle’s Eastside and enjoyed a long, mild summer and moody fall. Then December arrived and we quickly learned that the elevation of our neighborhood means it has its own odd microclimate: in wintertime, it is consistently a degree or two colder than the rest of town, the roads ice over, and we’re shoveling snow while folks at the bottom of the hill just get a bit of rain.

We figured at some point we’d be trapped atop our hill if we didn’t get a form of transportation that wasn’t a rear wheel drive, low-slung sports car. Enter the Toyota Tacoma, our new bad weather buggy and trail-driving buddy, which we’ve been spending January and February taking out to muddy gravel paths along the Snoqualmie River.

It’s phenomenally capable, and with it in our lives, I’ve been able to access views and vistas I’d normally not be able to reach on foot or by ordinary car. My fiancé put it when he said we’ve been able to pursue a “lonelier” vibe in recent photos and you know - I don’t hate it. I think lonely and moody is a gorgeous look.
