For our first photoblog, we were tasked with taking a faceless self portrait to represent who we are. I struggled with this idea for a long time, but felt drawn to the idea of doing something with my books. I have loved books and reading for as long as I can remember, so using a stack of books to represent myself seemed perfect. Every book in the stack has meant something to me at different parts of my life, and I truly believe they represent who I am more than my face ever could. I wanted the photo to seem dark, as I think it made the photo look almost mysterious in an effort to draw the viewer to them.
