Creative Gift Ideas for Men and Boyfriends

Since I am a photography loving guy myself, this is partly my own wish list. I will classify myself as a relatively creative but critical person. This list is for the slightly geeky type that enjoys nostalgic retro stuff and photography gadgets. This post I presume is for the girlfriends and wives of photo nerds.

Ultra cool slippers

I have these myself and love them. Very durable too.

Silhouette vinyl wall graphic

Perfect silhouette for the smart office space or for the home. I ordered one of these for my new studio.

The Bridge Wash Bag

Retro style wash bag

Get excited and make things

If your husband “get’s excited and makes things” then perhaps you should give him a T-shirt that says just that.

Great Small Artwork

Check out this site for great and funny gifts. Completely overlooked, but full of great small artwork.

The Bridge Despatch Bag

A very cool leather bag for your husband to spice up his attitude.

HONL starter kit

Great kit. Combined with other items from Honl Photo this is a great gift. This is part of my personal travel set up. I can literally do almost everything with this and a couple of flashes.

Western Digital 500GB My Passport Studio

A very cool gift with in the range of things that would be very appreciated. This super cool disc is small and lightweight but still has massive storage and firewire 800! Mac ready and high reviews.

WhiBal G6 – Pocket White Balance Gray Card

A slightly more sophisticated gift. With this gift you are supporting the more professional side of your husbands hobby and not the “hobby” side of things. This card is what I use to measure light temperature.

Canon Powershot G11

If you need to buy your husband a point and shoot camera this is by far the best consumer camera out there. It’s simply a fantastic camera for the price. I could and have used this camera for stock images to sell online. This camera is also the only consumer camera that is accepted by Gettys high end collection.

DataColor Spyder3Pro Display Calibration system

I never really get to upgrade to the newest calibrator. I would like this as a gift to be honest. With this gift you are again supporting the more professional side.
