You’re ravenous. A most delectable grilled cheese sits before you, melty sides catching your eye. It’s too beautiful to eat without photographing first! On February 24th at 12pm EST, you’ll discover you’re not the only one. It’s a global day of photographing your food! The Meal is calling all foodie photographers to participate in a global food photo exhibit. Your simultaneously shot photos will be collected and shown at The Brooklyn Art Library on March 31st. It’s for a good cause, too! The Meal has partnered with Action Against Hunger, a non-profit who battles hunger around the world. It all comes full-circle: your hunger-induced photo helps end hunger for others. Not even scarfing down a grilled cheese sandwich could beat that satisfaction. The Meal: Documenting a Global Snack Heads up! If you do submit, that means they can use your photo for promotional reasons. However, they’ll never sell your photo for profit. Read the deets on the Project Agreement! |

Ansel Adams once said, “You don’t take a photograph, you make it”. Well this year, we’re making the cameras. Forget about gingerbread men, women, and houses. Our pals Doug and Jenny got into the holiday spirit by making gingerbread cameras! They showed us just how they did it, so you can make one at home, too. Make a TLR, rangefinder or a Hasselblad. You can have any camera on your wish list! |

And now, armed with your photos, you can make it truly yours. If you already know about Jones Soda, you probably know that they’re a tiny soda company that’s made unique flavors (like Bubble Gum, Green Apple, and Strawberry) since 1995; and you probably know that their bottles feature beautiful photography. What most people don’t know is that you can upload a photo of your choice to the Jones website and they’ll ship you a custom 12-pack with your pic on the bottle. Customization doesn’t come cheap; a dozen bottles will set you back $35 + shipping. But it is easy: Upload a photo, choose your soda flavor, tap in your credit card, then sit back and wait for bubbly refreshment to arrive at your doorstep. myJones, Custom Photo Soda Bottles |
