Looking for a December photo challenge? You’re in the right place! 🎄
Although the original live challenge has now finished, you can still join in the fun!
I’ve put together December Daily: 31 Christmas Photography Prompts, a FREE printable filled with festive photography ideas to inspire you throughout December.
There’s no schedule to follow, no pressure to keep up, and you can dip into the prompts whenever you fancy!
You can grab your free copy below.
The holiday season can be an incredibly busy time, and it’s easy to get so wrapped in our “to-do” lists that we can forget to capture the season.
Which is exactly why we’re going to do a December Photo Challenge!
I’ve created a list with 31 December photo prompts, all with a Christmas / Holiday / Winter vibe, to help you capture the spirit, beauty and traditions of the season.
Of course, the photo prompts will also help you improve your photo skills, so it’s a win-win!
I’m in! When does it start?
Our December Photo Challenge officially kicks off on…….December 1st, 2017.
(Funny that)
The challenge will end on the 31st of December.
The idea is to take a photo a day, but of course, it’s perfectly fine to take 2, or even 3 photos on one day, and then none the next day!
Hopefully by the end of December you will have taken 31 photos.

You can also share your photos on Instagram with the hashtag #livesnaplovedecember
Step Three: Get Shooting
Then simply start documenting your December by taking a photo on the list, and then share in the group, or on Instagram (or both!)
Simply use this prompt list as a checklist, taking as many photos as you wish!
Can I share this with others?
I’d LOVE it if you could share! The more people who take part the merrier this will be.
Just share this blog post with them!
One last important thing….
Finally, and this may be the MOST important one - remember that this challenge is open to everyone, of all abilities, , so don't feel that you're too much of a beginner to take part, or your photos aren't "good enough" to share. I WANT TO SEE YOUR PHOTOS!!!
This is such a great mini photography project for you to improve your skills, and also a wonderful way to use photography to document your family life, so I’d love you to take part regardless of how long you’ve been shooting.
I hope you enjoy using these photo prompts as much as I enjoyed coming up with them!

It's been quite a few years now since I made the switch from Aperture Priority Mode to shooting in Manual Mode, and it was one of the BEST things I ever did to improve my photography skills.
It was like a whole new world opened up to me, and I started TRULY understanding exposure, and in turn, getting the images that I wanted.
Of course, there was a lot to learn, and there are some things I wish I had known before I started!
So, here are 10 things about shooting in Manual Mode that you might just wish you knew…
