This is a collection of the three photobooks “Orange Memories” (ISBN: 4048534556), “Blue Memories” (ISBN: 4048534572) and “White Memories” (ISBN: 4048534564). There is no special case or anything, just the three books wrapped up together in plasic. The only “bonus item” you get with this package is a postcard of Rina lying on a blue couch (from the same photoshoot as the orange book, but the photo doesn’t appear in the book – at least this is what I got). The list price of this package is the same as the combined price of the three books, so appart from the postcard you don’t really save anything. But I think the books go together and if you’re getting all the books anyway, why not buy this package?What you get is three books measuring 12 x 16.5 cm (about 4.7 x 6.5 inches), which is about “pocket book”-size. Each book contains about 50 pages of full colour pictures of Rina Uchiyama. They also include a few pages at the end describing the photoshoot and Rina’s other work (don’t take my word for this though, as my Japanese is quite bad ^_^;;). The quality of the print is not the best, but it’s definitly good enough.
The orange book was shot in Sicily, Italy and features photographs of Rina on a moto/scooter, Rina eating mayonaise straight from the jar ^_^, Rina’s feet, Rina lying on a blue couch and more. I especially like the last two pictures in this book where Rina is standing close to a brick wall wearing a striped dress (I know, it doesn’t sound like much, but they are very pretty).
The white book (well, actually it’s silver coloured) was shot in Paris and contains many lovely photographs of Rina out and about in the city. Rina has a very nice outfit in this book where she’s wearing a leather jacket and a brown skirt. Other photos include closeups of Rina’s hands and feet, Rina brushing her teeth, several photos of Rina having coffee (or maybe it’s hot chocolate) in a café (I love café pictures – don’t ask me why) and photos of Rinas accessories where she has written notes about each accessory.
The blue book was shot in New York and features pictures of Rina lying on a sofa with her bouse unbuttoned and closeup shots of the back of her neck. There are also some photos of her in an elevator wearing a sexy black leather skirt and a Harley Davidson top, and a few photos where she’s wearing ripped jeans and a small white top. I find these pictures to be very sexy (she’s not wearing less clothing than usual or anything like that. It’s just her expression that appeals to me). The last page of this book has a handwritten message from Rina. I think it says what she thinks her life will be like in ten years (I could be wrong though, since I’m only a beginner at Japanese).
All in all this is a good collection of pictures. I really like this set. The number of pictures in these three books combined is about what you’d expect from a normal photobook, only that the format is much smaller. The small size is both bad and good. You get much smaller pictures (of course), but a book this small is very convenient to carry with you in your bag so that you may look at your favourite Rina photos whenever you want.
I recommend getting the entire set despite the lack of bonus items, as buying just one of these books would be like buying a third of a normal photobook. At least this is how I feel.
