18 Jul - It is almost natural for celebrities and models to come out with their own photobook in the middle of every year when the Hong Kong Book Fest is scheduled to start. And this year, actress Rain Li will be the one to make her photobook debut - a project that she has been involved in for several months.

It is understood that Rain had invited Angelababy's friend and queen of photography, Guo Biqi of Mikoco Studio for the photoshoot, which was done around Hong Kong.

Although it will be the first photobook for Rain, she is no stranger to taking beautiful photos, having started her career in showbiz through modelling at the age of 16.

The 2017 Hong Kong Book Fest will begin on 19 July. Other stars who will be launching their own book at the event include Simon Yam, who is releasing his collection of photography; Steve Lee and Gigi Wong, who collaborated on publishing a recipe book; and Candy Yuen, who is releasing her own photobook.
