wish list for december

Hooray! It’s a brand new month and you know what that means. It’s time for a new word for our December One Word Project. And since it happens to be the season of holiday magic, why not Wish a little? Or a lot.

That being said, we present you a Shutter Sisters’ holiday Wish List full of cool gifts and gadgets (for every budget) for the photo enthusiast in all of us:

Stephanie is wishing for a 30mm f/1.4 lens and a Funky Camera neck strap.

Jen is wishing for The Super-Wide Conversion Lens for her Lensbaby Composer and a Polaroid Camera of any kind (with film).

Irene is wishing for a print from chocokat and one from Alicia Bock and the book Little Italy by Jenifer Altman.

Paige is wishing for a Mod camera neck strap.

Kristin is wishing for the Golden Half Green Trees Edition half frame toy camera.

Meredith is wishing for a GetReadySetGo messenger bag for gear and a mountain of film for her Kodak Brownie Hawkeye.

Maile is wishing forthe Fuji instax-camera.

Chris is wishing for the same Fuji instax-camera as Maile.

Sarah is wishing for a hand-knit, generously cushioned dSLR camera cozy in robin egg blue (know where she can find one?) and a super secret spy lens from Photojojo.

Alex is wishing for the Mona Kuhn: Native book, Polaroid 600 film & 120 film for her Holga and the Polaroid Frames from Photojojo.

Tracey is wishing for the Fisheye Optic for her Lensbaby Composer, a Camera Necklace from Urban Outfitters and the HP MediaSmart Server.

And while we’re wishing…here’s a few more wish-worthy ideas for Shutter Sisters everywhere:

The Shutter Sisters Flash Bulb Necklace (with the brand new sparkly chain!)

Maile’s new Camera Bags (a little bird told us that if you're on the mailing list, you'll be notified as soon as the holiday gift cards are available for these coveted bags. OMG!)

The Dreamy Diana lens at Photojojo

Digital Mini Case at Delight.com

Kirsty Takes a Bow (it might not be a book about photography but there are lots of amazing photos in it which is good enough for us!)

Seat Belt Camera Straps at Photojojo

Lightware Compact Flash Media Wallet

The Emma Photo Ring by Kimbra Studios

We encourage you to send the url to this post along to friends and family with the subject line ‘wishes' or 'hint hint' or some such thing. They’ll get the idea! And if you're wishing big this year and hoping to get some new photo equipment, send them to B&H Photo before the holidays. We pretty much guarantee they'll have what you're wishing for!

So, let's have it. What are you hoping to find under your tree this year? Come on, you can share your wish with us. Wishes are a wonderful thing!  B&H Photo sure thinks so and are giving away 2 gift cards (for $25 each) to 2 of you today to help your photo gear wishes come true. Isn't December starting out grand? Just leave a comment to be entered in the random drawing. Yay!

And we’ll be watching for your Wish images in our OWP Flickr Pool all month long.  If you’ve never participated in the One Word Project, we do wish you would join us! With all these wishes swirling about, some are bound to come true!

Like so many photographers, I am wishing for the Fuji instax camera too. ;)

Well, one of my wishes arrives tomorrow (from B&H, no less); a Canon 430EXII! I have my B&H catalog all marked up so hubby can pick and choose! That gift card would come in handy!

Happy Holidays!

I'm wishing for one of those gorgeous Maile camera bags! Oh yes, and maybe some new gear to go inside.
Great word for this month!

I'm wishing for a trip somewhere special with my girlfriends. Time to play, time to shoot for fun, time to enjoy a meal and a glass of wine without my kids wanting something from me. I wish my husband would come up with that idea himself... hmmm ;-0

I'm wishing for Maile's camera bag - hurry, hurry!!

Okay, this is embarrassing - I have over $4,500 of stuff on my B & H wish list, which includes the Canon 7D (yeah, right), a couple of white balance lens caps (different sizes), a new Speedlite, various lenses, and this totally cool little guy:

Now how cute is that??

Among other things, I'm wishing for the Dreamy Diana Lens, a Wacom Bamboo Pen tablet, a 52mm circular polarizing filter, a bunch of books including Hot Shots, and those Mod camera straps are Wow! I just added the Sam to my list.

I would love a D90 body... And any Lensbaby stuff! :)
December 3, 2009 | Unregistered Commenteraphrodite
What a lovely photo! I'm looking forward to taking some pics with this in mind.
December 3, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterJacqueline
I would love a camera strap and a cool new fashion camera bag that actually accomodates everything and looks nice too.
December 3, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterCrystal
I'm wishing for the Tamron 60mm macro lens and a new camera strap. There's a possibility the strap might show up, but not much hope for the lens this year!
December 3, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterKaren
I am wishing for a 50mm f1.8 lens.

I'm wishing to decide on which camera I want as I plan to upgrade in January (or February, depending on paychecks!). I was originally going to go with the Canon T1i as I've used Canon since I started getting serious about photography. But as I just recently started working with our local newspaper, I'm using Nikon and... well... I may be a convert. I'm confused, though, as I spent a lot of time on my previous research for Canon and now I have had to start all over. I'm using the Nikon D200 at work which makes it kind of pointless to just upgrade my personal camera to the D300.

But as for under the Christmas tree, I'll probably ask my husband for a Nikon remote that works with the work camera as I REALLY wanted (as in ONE gift) was on one of Malie's bags but they don't seem to be live yet. I'll have to wait until next Christmas. :(

I think I'm wishing for a Tamron 18-275 lens for my Canon. But I can't really decide!
I am only recently discovering that photography is a drug. I'd love the gift card to help fund my habit.

oh, I also wish that this website provided more photography tips. I see all these wonderful photos and I want to ask --- how did you get this? what did you do with it afterwards to get that awesome effect??? I feel like I could learn so much, instead of just enjoying the pretty pictures...
December 3, 2009 | Unregistered Commenterjaye
I want some cozy knee high socks, a new denim skirt, a 2010 planner, and, at the very top of my list....for my "foster-to-adopt son" to become "son".
December 3, 2009 | Unregistered CommenterNikki

I would totally love a SLR -- I have a canon - so would love an image stabilzed lens -- but always on my wish list is anything photography based.

Biggest of hugs

i am wishing for more opportunities to capture the magic of the faces i love so dearly. i struggle to get the right picture - the one that makes my heart swell with gratitude for the amazing people i am blessed to have in my life. i need to make more time to do that - it gives me such joy.

and of course a new lens wouldnt go amiss.
December 10, 2009 | Unregistered Commenterdawnydee
The Canon 7D, thank you. And a new camera bag (M's of course), tripod, another battery and more memory cards, several lenses, sleep, world peace and my son back home. :)

Merry Christmas!
