Christmas Gift Guide for Photographers 2016

 

A guide for any level of photographer. All of my personal favorites.

Practical gifts
1. These Rocket Air Blaster:  are pretty awesome. They blow out air but won’t suck it back in. Awesome to clean those little dust spots on lenses or mirrors. I have 2.
2. SD Cards  So simple, yet so necessary. You can’t get more practical than that.
3. Domke Protective Wrap makes it super easy to take your camera or lenses on the go and keep them protected.
4. When I travel I like to keep all my cords and electronic things together. This Travel Electronic Organizer  is perfect.
5. It’s important to stay hydrated and comfortable while out shooting. The Swell Water Bottle will help keep your water tasty.
6. Gorilla pod tripods are cool because they can support the weight of DSLRS but I’d still be a little careful with it depending on the lens. Super fun to get creative angles with this.

Fun gifts

7. Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert is about you and your creativity. 5 stars. Highly recommended.
8. These Personalized Greeting Cards by Moo are such great quality. I mean the paper is so nice and thick plus they have lots of other great personalized gifts.
9. I love this JBL Speaker. I listen to it all the time while editing my images and blast it when I’m in the shower.
10. Another essential to keeping comfortable while taking pictures. These Rainboots are comfortable to walk in all day.
11. Fujifilm Instax Printer I have S-1 but the S-2 looks even cooler. I love being able to take pictures on my phone but print them out on this Polaroid film.

This was my first time visiting George Washington’s Home, Mt. Vernon. To be honest, I never really knew where it was. Turns out, it’s only 25 min away from my house. I knew it was going to be historical and educational but while I was walking through, I really enjoyed my time there. Everyone was really friendly, they were willing to help me find where I was going and answer any random question I had. I think one of the best parts was at the end in the Education center. Did you know when Mr. Washington was inaugurated he only had 1 tooth in his mouth? Crazy, but interesting!

This blacksmith was in the middle of making a 100 boot stands that cleans the bottom of your boot, in the olden days.
