Do you have a photographer in your life that just loves anything to do with her camera? Does she swoon at the sight of pretty camera straps and giggle when reading punny photography quote art? Well look no further! This is your guide to find a unique gift for your happy photographer.
Clothing and Jewellery
If you're looking for something personal and unique, just head on over to Etsy and type camera jewellery in the search bar. You will be amazed at the selection of personal, handmade, and quality items that you can find, like these earrings and this cute "I flash people" bracelet. I love the Story Teller t-shirt above, and you can find many more unique clothing items over on Etsy and Amazon.
Camera Accessories
Camera accessories can be a great gift for your photography lover, as when you're just starting out, you might think that either you don't have the finances for these things, or you won't really use it.
If you know the camera or lens your photographer is using, getting a filter like this polarizing filter from Henry's is a great idea. Tripods like this one from Amazon aren't that expensive, and they are really a benefit to any photographers toolkit.
Finally, my favourite, camera straps! I love funky and personalized camera straps. How pretty is this scarf camera strap?? Its a great way to add personality to your business, and I fully believe that scarf straps are so much more comfortable than regular straps. They have a little stretch to them, and are wider so they distribute the weight of the camera better. I also love the rustic look of the personalized leather straps that I have seen.
Home Decor
Who doesn't need another mug or pillow? I know I do! Mugs like this story teller mug, and pillows with quotes like this one are cute little gifts to show care and support for the new photographer. Wall art is also a cute idea. Etsy and sites like Creative Market have a great selection of inexpensive downloadable images to add to any frame.
That "Life is Short" print is actually FREE! Get that freebie at the top of this page, and you're one step ahead on your Christmas shopping. Looking for something a little different? Head on over to the home page, grab the coupon to my Etsy shop, and take a look through for unique printables.
The Smartphone Photographer
Is your photographer killing it on her smartphone? There are awesome gifts that you can get her for her smartphone, regardless of whether it's Android or Apple. Have you thought of clip-on lenses? From fisheye to zoom, wide angle and everything in between, lenses like these are super fun to play around with. Tripods aren't just for DSLRs either. Tripods like this one are small and easily transported. Already have a tripod? Smartphone attachments are another good add-on. Lastly, there are a number of smartphone printers like this one that allow your photographer to quickly print and share her photography on the go!
Gift Cards
Gift cards are really a no brainer, but they deserved a mention here because they are great if you aren't sure what kind of setup your photographer is using. A gift card to Henry's, Amazon, or your local photography store will help your new photographer get something that she has had her eye on. But did you know Etsy has gift cards? If you want to support handmade, and get your photographer something unique, but you're not sure what, get an Etsy Gift card!
So whether you're looking for clothing, jewellery, home decor, or tech accessories, there are plenty of ideas to get your happy photographer something to keep her smile bright.
