Do YOU PoGo?

Yes, the question of the day... Do you know about PoGo? PoGo is the sorta new Polaroid printer that uses ZINK technology (as in Zero Ink... ie, MAGIC!). It's a cute little printer that prints 2x3 photos (on sticker paper) from digital cameras, cell phones, etc. Here's a picture of it... we have the jazzed up red version, but you can get it in black...

Now, why you ask is this cool? Earlier this year, we had a bride who wanted to do her guest book as Polaroid prints... and of course you can't readily buy Polaroid cameras anymore (and the film is not as readily accessible either... ) We had seen this little red printer and thought hmm. Maybe we should check it out. We did and it's cool. It would be a great alternative to Polaroids if you don't happen to have a camera already.

Imagine - a cute guest book or frame with these little 2x3 stickers collaged and messages/names signed... The film comes in 30 packs and works out cheaper than regular Polaroid film. Here's a couple of photos printed of some of the Designs in Paper family...

It's important to note that you aren't going for high quality, high color photos here... and if that's what you want, this is not the option... But for some really cool, vintage, bit of grain, and unique color and texture, this little printer is a fun little addition to any event. Also, if you are really interested in this, use photos without a lot of detail in the background - ie, blue sky, etc. and they will print even better...

Anyway, a fun new idea (that's relatively inexpensive) to capture a memory or two!
