The holidays are right around the corner and many people have either started shopping for gifts or will right after Thanksgiving. Here are a few suggestions for that photographer in the family.

1. Top End Digital Camera

Just take a trip down to your local camera store or to 42nd Street Photo if you are in the New York City area. These stores usually have a great selection of all types of digital cameras.

2. Photography Magazine Subscription

Consider gift subscriptions to such photography-related magazines as American Photo, Outdoor Photographer, Professional Photographer, Shutterbug or Digital Photographer.

3. Digital Photography Course

You can check out photography courses being offered the New York Institute of Photography. Course types include NYI Complete Course in Professional Photography, Digital Photography Complete Course: Adobe® Photoshop® for Photographers, and NYI Short Course: Fundamentals of Digital Photography.
