Let's SWAP!
I've missed the swap so much and I'm really looking forward to participating myself and compiling all your photos each week. For those who are new and love to take photos, you should play along! Here's what we're talking about...
How it started: I knew I wanted to do a photo-related project once I received my first DSLR camera for my 26th birthday. And once challenged by my California-dwelling friend, Adam (the second half of
The Life in our Years & who took some amazing
wedding photos for us) to a creative photo collaboration; I said let's do it! We wanted to share our admiration of the places we both live and how different, and sometimes very similar, they may be.
When it evolved: Adam and I invited others to join after the second week. Everything is more fun with friends, right?
A theme?: YES! A few people expressed to me how hard it was to take a photo of "anything" and needed a specific direction. So, I throw out a new theme every week and ask for everyone to make it their own. It's fun to see the different points of view.
How you can join: Anyone can join us for the photo swap, just dust off your camera, make the weekly
theme your own, and e-mail your photo to me on Sunday with your name and how I can link the photo to your website (if you have a site, if not, that's absolutely okay).
The purpose: Ultimately, I hope the photo swap can be a creative outlet and a place where photo enthusiasts can share their love!
**Next week's theme: something that makes you happy
E-mail your themed photo to: kendra.e.grimm(at)gmail(dot)com
Take a peak at the past year's swaps and I'll look forward to your photos in my mailbox on Sunday!
