#inspirationbox

My friend is a photographer. I made this gift for her.

It's called Hawa's Inspiration Box for photos and this is how it works: Before going out on a mission to take photos, you pull a card from the inspiration box. The card will give you a word or drawing which should serve as inspiration for taking photos. Look at the word/drawing, take it's literal meaning but also think about any deeper meanings, connotations or interpretations that it could represent. Think about figurative meanings or how the keyword can be used in interesting ways. Now go out and take photos regarding this keyword.

This is how I made it:

Step 1: Acquire a cute little box.

Step 2: Spend a week thinking of interesting keywords and write them down. Make drawings for some so that the user can interpret it in their own way.

Step 3: Think of more keywords.

Step 4: Make cards out of all the keywords and put them inside the box.

And there you have it. The prefect inspiration box for photos.
