what girl are you?

We are all photographers together, yes?

....but we do divide into smaller group depending what we like to shoot and the gear we shoot with... Canon, Nikon, Polaroid, Pentax, Olympus, Rollei, iphone....the list goes on.... and that’s what makes us all so uniquely different.

While I was on the shutter sisters Camp, I noticed the conversations between the ladies “oh I’m a Canon person", "I've always have been Canon...” or “I’m a Nikon” (although pronounced different on either side of the pond!)... "Nikon is the best" and there were so many proud “Polaroid girls...” saying "My heart belongs to Polaroid"

I shared this with a dear friend of mine and it sparked into a new collaboration to celebrate what you shoot with. We have created prints and badges/buttons for you to be proud of who you are. I am a Canon girl..... and know some of you are Nikon girls and Polaroid girls...

As we're so excited about this new project, we’d love to offer one print of your choice to you lovely girls out there, all you've got to do is tell me what girl you are.....Canon, Nikon, or Polaroid or something else in the comments below.... You have until tomorrow Sat 21st Jan midnight PST.....

Updated - the winner was Stephanie of http://bigmariolife.blogspot.com/ - If you would like updates of further products, please follow us at facebook.

I have been a Nikon girl for over a dozen years. I had a brief flirtation with Canon, but my heart led me back to my Nikon.

I'm using a Nikon now, but was a loyal Canon girl for years and years and years....

Nikon girl! When I was first camera shopping I found that most of my favourite photographers on Flickr had one thing in common - they used Nikons. Right or wrong, that really helped me make my choice.

Great prints and buttons!

I've been a Kodak Brownie baby, a Polaroid pixie, a Canon kinda-chick, a Lomography lass, and now I am A 'NIKON GIRL' !!!.... for now.... ;~)

I am definitely a Nikon Girl! Got a Nikon SLR about 10 years ago, and my first DSLR about 4 years ago.
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered Commenterdancing_lemur
Also, I, too, would love a JPEG of the print...any chance that could be made available??
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered Commenterdancing_lemur
I've been a Nikon girl for as long as I can remember! And now my son is Nikon-true too! WOOT!

Oh. Canon for me. I'm a new Canon girl. :-) Just got my camera a couple months ago and am learning all about it.

I'm a Nikon Girl and proud of it! These prints are so cute!!!
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterNikki
Me? I'm a Nikon girl. Although my first digital point & shoot was Canon - my first big girl DSLR was & is a Nikon.
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterPatti G
I am a Canon Girl - it just happened that way, I guess when I got my first point and shoot as a teenager. Have always liked Canon and never had a reason to change!
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterLori M
Definitely a Canon girl..although occasionally a Polaroid girl ;-) Saving up for a 7D.
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered Commenterkristina

I am a canon girl myself too! in fact, it just worked out that way, but my very first camera was a kodac disc! remember them? and i learned to shoot on my mom's old pentax...damn i still miss that camera.

Oh I'm a Canon girl. Through and through :D
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterKarin
oh my Nikon and I are best friends, never far from my hip.............definitely a Nikon girl..!
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterLiz McMahon
Hmmm? I'm a canon and polaroid girl! I take my polaroid with me everywhere though so I guess I would have to go with polaroid!
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterJade
Such a fabulous collaboration!
I love them all and have already bought a Polaroid print for my daughter.
Me, though... well, I'm actually a Canon girl through and through :)

Canon all the way - 50D and L series lenses. I love Canon!
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterDiane H
I think you two are clever ladies. They're fantastic ....and I'm a Canon girl.

I'm proud to say I'm a Nikon gal! :-)
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterAndrea
I'm a Sony girl. Both my point and shoot and my DSLR. Back in the film days, I was a Konica girl. I've always been a little off center, I guess.
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterLaurie
I'm a Nikon gal.
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterJuliana
Right off hand I've gotta say I'm a nikon gal. But my primary film camera is a canon, and I've recently acquired an old polaroid and a couple of packs of impossible film... Nikon, though, has stolen my heart <3

I'm a Sony Nex girl.
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterJodi

January 20, 2012 | Unregistered Commentermelissa
...started out a nikon girl all the way!...switched to a canon recently. guess if i have to choose - it's canon since that's where i am now. :)
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered Commenterdenise
I am, and probably always will be, a Canon girl!
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered Commentertara
I'm a Nikon girl, but I do love my iphone:)
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterPhyllis
I am a Canon girl. When my grandfather pasted I was given his cameras. He was always my inspiration. Always Canons!
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterDwan
I just recently got my first DSLR after years of a kodak and I went REBEL :)
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterShakti Womyn
All Canon all the time.
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterLisa
If my Nikon were human, I'd be having a wild affair with him. I'd call him Nik for short. He'd call me his pretty little sharp shooter. We'd live happily ever after. The end.
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterBoots
i'm a canon girl! {however i started....way back when in high school...as a pentax girl.}
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterTamara
I am a Canon girl all the way. I finally just got a 60D and love it.
January 20, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterChristine Lovelace
A happy Nikon girl!
January 21, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterLynn M
Always a nikon girl :) fantastic prints !
January 21, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterAndrea
I am a Canon girl. Started with my dad's Canon film camera and lens and now have my own! All are good though I am sure. Just didn't want to invest in anything new :) But then I went and bought a DSLR and new glass so I could have started fresh with another brand I guess, but I love my Canons :) (and my iPhone!)
January 21, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterKGilbert
Count this cannon girl in too!
January 21, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterLibby
I'm a Nikon girl, for no other reason except that is the first camera I owned was a Nikon that my dad got me for my birthday when I was in Middle School...and then the Nikon brand just "stuck" with me! However, recently I have learned to shoot with a Canon--I have to admit, I had to really think about what I was doing when I was shooting!
January 21, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterKyle Elizabeth
I use a Fujifilm camera but cannot say that my heart goes with a particular brand. My hubby bought this for me as a gift, and I have been happy. What makes it even better is that it was very budget-friendly.
January 21, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterCindy
Hi. I hope I didn't already post this, but yesterday my comment wasn't loading. I'm a Canon girl through and through!
January 21, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterAllie
I've been a Nikon girl since I started using my Dad's SLR in junior high. Today, I am also an iphone girl. I love them both and couldn't trade either for anything. :) Thanks Dad. xo
January 21, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterMichelle
I'm a Canon girl! I'm sure the others are all great too, Canon is just where I started and now I'm invested. Fun idea!!
January 21, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterKat
Such fun, Xanthe!
January 21, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterKirstin
I'm a canon girl!
January 21, 2012 | Unregistered CommenterLinda
My Nikon has always been close to my heart. <3
But since I've always had a deeper passion for film, I have found my self buying (and wanting to buy) old polaroids.
I'm a woman of many cameras. =P
January 21, 2012 | Unregistered Commenterabigail
I started with a Nikon but switched to a Canon recently. I really like it so I guess I'm now a Canon girl!
