After back to back extremely busy days I like to use my free time to read and sip on good coffee. I feel like I rarely have the time to read for pleasure, but when I do it is so worth while. Lately I have been using my spare time to flip through this beautiful photo book, “Life.Love.Beauty” by Keegan Allen.

I first came across this book when I saw a photo on social media that captured my attention. I was instantly desperate to know who the photographer was and eventually was led back to the original photograph. Imagine my surprise when a bunch of clicks led me to the realization that the photographer I had been searching for was actually Toby from Pretty Little Liars. I am an avid fan of the show and keep up to date on all  the latest A drama. It has surprised and impressed me, how talented he really is with photography.

I was even more impressed once I received this lovely photo book. It is a combination of a memoir and a photography book. The book features some stunning photographs from his past and current life including some portraits of the PLL cast.  One of my favorite photographs is the one shown above, Allen definitely has some serious talent and I hope he continues to produce more art. I think I am more excited to follow his photography career rather than his acting.

If you’ve never tried it, I think you should definitely go look for a nice photography book. There is something very soothing and relaxing about starting your mornings with a cup of tea/coffee and beautiful pictures.

Here are some of my favorite photo books for your enjoyment:

2. Fashion Photography 101 – Lara Jade
