Spotlight Tour, Guest Post & Giveaway for WALK WITH ME by Debra Schoenberger! [Ends 3/31/18]3/13/2018
Book Details:
Book Title: Walk with Me by Debra Schoenberger Category: Adult non-fiction / Photography - 104 pages Genre: Documentary / Street Photography / Travel Publisher: Blurb | Release date: December 26, 2017 Tour dates: March 5 to 23, 2018 Content Rating: G Book Description: Whenever I'm asked "which is the best camera?" I pretty much respond: "the one you have on you." In fact, most of the images in this book were taken with my cell phone simply because I always have it with me. This is not only a book about street photography but a visual diary, or collection of quirky, unusual and sometimes just plain weird photos I've taken over the course of the last decade. As a street photographer, I need to be an assiduous walker. My sneakers often take me to little known, hidden corners, seaweed strewn (and sometimes stinky) beaches and really cool back alleys of my rather small island city of Victoria, BC. I've also included images of curiosities I've seen throughout my travels. Everyone sees the world differently and this is my collection of the quirkiness that I call life.
GUEST POST:
TRAVEL JOURNALS by Debra Schoenberger Have you ever had the chance to admire the beautiful travel journals on Pinterest? As I admire the different beautifully designed journals, I can't help but be envious of those artists who are able to sketch gorgeous scenes of their travel experiences.
Bleh. I can barely draw a stickman. So what's the alternative?
Stickers. Yep. For those artistically challenged like me, stickers can be a fun and easy way to create a travel journal. I like https://www.redbubble.com/ because they have loads of stickers. As I travel, I tend to pick up cool and interesting paper souvenirs such as coffee coasters, business cards, and other ephemera. I also add small photos I've printed out with my mini printer (it works with wifi directly to my cell phone).
Washi tape is a decorative lightly sticky tape that comes in tons of different sizes and designs. You can buy them on https://www.etsy.com/ca/.
I pick up vintage National Geographic maps at the used book store and cut out the different countries that I will be visiting.
Although my journal is quite heavy, I bring it with me and work on it almost every day. I write down any interesting observations or situations that tickle my funny bone because I know that I will forget about them when I come home.

Meet the author / photographer:
Debra Schoenberger - aka #girlwithcamera "My dad always carried a camera under the seat of his car and was constantly taking pictures. I think that his example, together with pouring over National Geographic magazines as a child fuelled my curiosity for the world around me. I am a documentary photographer and street photography is my passion. Some of my images have been chosen by National Geographic as editor's favourites and are on display in the National Geographic museum in Washington, DC. I also have an off-kilter sense of humour so I'm always looking for the unusual. Connect with the author: Website ~ Facebook ~ Instagram ~ Pinterest
