Regardless of your budget, you can find a gift to make the photographer on your gift-giving list the picture of happiness. Though the gift you choose will depend in part on the type of camera your shutterbug prefers, many gifts will work with either a digital or SLR camera.

All photographers, whether they admit it or not, love to see their work and to show it off to others. A digital frame or key-chain just might be the perfect gift. Most digital frames have both built-in memory and a slot for a memory card, making them perfect to show off your photography buffs favorite shots. The digital key-chains have less memory, but allow the photos to be within easy reach for showing off a couple of shots when on location.

Another way for a photographer to showcase some of their favorites is with a business card or postcards. But what picture would you choose? Until recently you had to order business cards in batches of at least one to two hundred - and the photos would all be alike. But now you can add some variety to your favorite photographer's professional image. Go to Moo.com and order as few as 50 business cards at a time. Though 50 cards will cost a little over $20, the beauty of Moo.com is that each card can be different. Choose one picture, ten pictures or fifty pictures and Moo.com will imprint the business card with the photo(s) on one side and the photographer's information on the other. Talk about a unique way to show your best work! Moo.com also offers smaller, "mini-cards" with up to six lines of print on the reverse. The cost of a package of 100 "mini-cards" is less than $20 and the photographer can use up to 100 different views of his/her work. A fun gift might be Moo.com's sticker-book. At less than $10 for 60 stickers (up to six different images per page) this would be a fun-tastic gift for not only the photographer, but possibly for children or grandchildren, too. Don't have access to the photo's or not sure which ones to use? Not a problem - Moo.com offers gift cards for each of their products. Each of the gift cards is prepaid, including shipping, so that your gift recipient just has to decide on the pictures, go to the website and place the order. Moo.com also offers custom postcards, note-cards and greeting cards - all with the ability to mix and match images to your heart's content.
