After six albums, US singer-songwriter Jason Mraz is planting his troubadour roots firmly into the sands and soils of the San Diego music scene. Currently working on his third studio album at home, Mraz makes time for surfing and landscaping when he’s not playing music. An avid photographer, Mraz, who visited 16 countries in 2006, is putting together his first book of Polaroid pictures based on his travels. “What I love about instant photography is that it captures the moment. Digital photography can sometimes take you out of sync with the real moment always unfolding before you. Digital gives you the option of erasing the moment and trying to produce a better one. I’d rather sit and wait until the light is right before I snap an image. If anything, I get to sit with my subject and truly savour the moment.” Mraz's message is clear. Live in the moment. Be present.

A Polaroid photo book? AWESOME!
Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti
Ooooh! I know he said all his favorite polaroids were at the printers when the San Diego fires were threatening his house. But, this makes it sound like he's thinking of publishing, no...? That would be awesome!
