Last Minute Christmas Ideas To and From Photographers

Here's a few ideas to give as a photographer.

1) Write up a contract to do a family portrait
2) photograph the family pet
3) take a picture of their house
4) make a small (read 8.5X11 or smaller) print and put it in a frame and give that as a gift - giving a print that then needs an expensive print is not only not appreciated, if they don't like the picture - they are in an awkward spot.
5) too late for this Christmas, but how about a book of prints - they don't have to occupy wall space, they get better selection of prints so there are bound to be some they like, and it takes up little space.

Here's some last minute gifts for the photographer.

1) Visible Dust Cleaning system, portable spinning brush, etc.
2) an extra 1 - 4 gig compact flash card make a nice stocking stuffer
3) any of the books on photography by Freeman Patterson
4) reflector
5) lens cleaning brush
