I did a "photo a day" project, I didn't have a number that I was trying to reach, the only restrictions I put on myself was I had to take the photo by "midnight".

It forced me to come up with different ideas, something that I felt was interesting or would be interesting, different, cliche or funny. I put themes on some weeks but tried to be different each time within the theme as well!

It was tough, but rewarding. I stopped due to personal reasons, but it was a lot of fun to do! It's also warming to see how other people like being involved too, as helpers or models, etc.

So not only will it help you think creatively, but also help you build bonds with those around you who want to be a part of these types of things



And hey, I'm sure you'll come up with some absolute gold photos for the portfolio you want! And it'll be a unique thing that you can show off too
