BUY MY BOOK!

Postby AlbertSiegel » Sun Jun 22, 2008 10:14 am

Just wanted to let my friends and enemies know that my first photobook has been published. It's all about the girls of Harajuku and is available from amazon.com as of this week. So please help me earn some booze money by buying a copy and/or spreading the word.

http://www.amazon.com/albert-siegels-HARAJUKU-GIRLS-vol/dp/1438200870/ref=sr_1_23?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1214096503&sr=8-23

That's cold Taro! You should have at least let him know that was your new wig and black lace before you attacked him....

The funny thing is that really is a photo of me with those girls. They are in the book. The photo was taken for fun. Taro was there helping them kick me. They rather seemed to like the idea of hurting me.

Thanks!

Sorry about the price.... I would have liked it to be a bit lower, but this is a full color book and it is in line with other photobooks. I asked for paperback as it would keep the price below $40USD.

As for my name... It is German, but I know nothing about my family history. I was born in the United States and only have my father here who has not had any contact with his family since the 70's and does not like to talk about it. No big deal really, I am who I am not because of what I am.

Thank you! I really hope you like it. I am very excited to have a book published. It's nice to see something outside the newspaper industry. Please let me know what you think of it when you get it.

Thank you! Sorry, but no goats in the book. There is a girl dressed as a frog and another as some sort of insect. Please let me know what you think when you get a copy.

Thank you! I hope you will like it. Please share your opinion when you get a look.


Thank you all for your support! I am very excited about this book. I hope everyone will enjoy my photography.

Special for FG members only.... let me know if there is any photo in that book that you simply must have and I will e-mail you a copy of that photo for you to use on your computer desktop as a wallpaper. Just let me know what resolution you want it at.

Thanks again!
