Improve your Photography! Join our Project 52
Happy New Year!!!
I am so looking forward to the New Year! I’ve got lots of exciting things coming your way! And the first of all of these is My Project 52 collaboration with Mimi at Lipgloss and Binky!!
I know a lot of you got cameras for Christmas and you want to learn how to use them. The first step in doing that is to TAKE MORE PICTURES. And one of the best ways to do that, is to complete a photography project.
The way a Project 52 photography project works is that every week, for 52 weeks, you take a photograph. For our Project, each week, on Thursday, we will post the theme for the week. ( and yes I included the whole list because I know SOME people like to plan ahead!)
For the next week, go about your life and take a photo! And starting next Thursday, we will have a link up for each week!
I’m so excited!
Now, the First theme for Week 1 of our Project 52 project is WHO ARE YOU?
I wanted to kick off this week by getting to know each other, so be creative! This could be a self portrait, a photo of your favorites things, or just something that really defines WHO YOU ARE.
FAQ/Housekeeping

Let’s Go!
Can’t wait to see what others are doing. 🙂
Happy New Year! I think I may attempt to do this for 2015…well at least most of it! I look forward to seeing more of you pics!
I will do it in my Weekly Sat roudup each week. My thing is will I forget *cries*. Is there a special hastag or just #project52? I ain’t taking no selfies………
I think I can manage once per week. You’re right, I definitely need to plan ahead so I can purposefully complete all of these. What’s the hashtag? I’d love to keep up with others who are participating.
I love the idea of the 52-week challenge. I received a DSLR camera for Christmas and am still trying to figure out how it all works. This will be a great way to test it out. I also have a running list of this year’s hashtags. Adding #project52 to it!
Super excited to join you and Mimi on this Project 52! I am in it to win it. I am commiting to finish this project.
YAY! Happy New Year, LaShawn! I didn’t get a camera for Christmas, but I’m considering the purchase of a Canon Rebel T4i (or 5i?) to shoot my Youtube vids. I could most definitely also catch up on Project 52 once I make my purchase. It’s a fabulous idea for learning the camera. Is my camera choice decent for a newbie? I’d love your opinion.
The t5i is the PERFECT camera for a newbie! It’s the one I always always recommend!
I love pics!! This is a great idea…I’m so not a photographer, but I do need a new camera…this is a great training tool for those aspiring photogs out there…Actually, I know a blogger who might like to be part of this.
I’m already doing the 365 Project and the FMS Photo a Day or I’d love to do this one as well! Looks awesome 🙂
I’m looking forward to linking up and improving my photography skills.
I am so looking forward to this challenge! I even created a pin Board just for my photos. Thanks for organizing it. I first heard of it through Lipgloss & Binky.
what a fun project good luck with competing all 52!
I’m in. This is going to make me more deliberate in my photos. I didn’t get the new camera yet, so I’m all about the camera phone and editing. 🙂
Excited to join up! Thanks for sharing the entire year – I’m one of those folks…LOL
Will you be doing this again for 2016?
