As soon as the ball drops and you’re done kissing your sweetheart, you are probably already wondering: What in the world am I gonna do in 2013?
How about starting one of these seven photo projects with the New Year? Project 365 is a classic choice, but you might want to peruse these twists on that classic long term photo project as well.
Find something just right for you this year, no matter what sort of commitment you’re looking for. Take a peek at these ideas and select the perfect one to help your creative juices flow like champagne on New Year’s Eve.
7 Project Ideas to Start off the New Year
p.s. We’re re-posting our most favorited Tweets of the year! Follow us on Twitter to see what our best photography projects, stories, and tips of 2012 were.
This is the time honored photo-a-day challenge, and it definitely deserves a mention. Fair warning: it’s not for the faint of heart.
Never fear though, we’ve got lots of tips on how to do it. If you’re in the habit of taking pictures all of the time anyway, and you take your camera with you everywhere (and yes, phone cameras are REAL CAMERAS!) why not give it a shot?
Some ideas to make it less daunting:
If you’re crafty, this might be just right for you. Project Life is a scrapbooker’s answer to documenting your days. It’s almost like a grown up yearbook!
Our friend Jodi McKee has been using Project Life this year to keep track of everything from her baby’s firsts to internet meetups.
Project 365’s baby bro, a weekly photographic project. Anything you can do with Project 365, you can squeeze into a package 1/7th the size.
Instead of committing to a specific time frame, commit to an object to record over time. Kevin Day did this watched (and documented!) the landscape changing around this tree over 5 years.
Try your hand long (we mean LONG) exposures like Michael Wesley has in New York. He captured 3 years of construction in a single frame!
Instead of shooting every day, make it your goal to collect a picture from each hour of the day. This will flex your photographic muscles, and make you work with all sorts of conditions, like low light.
There are so. many. apps. that can help you stay motivated to keep up with these new projects.
Here are just a smattering:

Nikon D90 Digital Photography – Love, Love, love my Nikon D90! Here are some of my very first photos shot in full manual mode. Nikon D90 www.eye-on-design.com Photography, Nikon D90 Photos, Nikon D90 Portrait, nikon d90 photography, Digital Photography I’m a budding new photographer anxious to learn all i can about digital photography. We all know the best way to learn is to take out your camera and shoot. And so i do. I’d love to hear any and all comments good bad or indifferent. Hopefully i can learn a thing or two from you. Many thanks to “The Man on Street” To those who are so willing to be photographed. You make this a joy! To those of you who may not be aware you are being photographed, candid shots make some of the best shots. To my teacher, Adam, sometimes those tangents hit on something good. To my love, thank you for always enduring. for the fun and laughs we’ve had on so many shoots. For putting up with me even when for you, it wasn’t so much fun. For always carrying my gear…I LOVE YOU FOR THAT. And for most of all showing me constant encouragement and support. You’re the Best!

The New Year’s almost here! You know what that means: resolutions.
Time to tackle all of those photo troubles you had this past year.
Instead, try these three time-travelling projects! The Film Negative Time Capsule, Recreate a Photo, and the Reverse 365 will help you look back on years past and look forward on the year ahead!
Photo Projects for the New Year!
p.s. Wanna be our friend? Check the box, yes or no.
Time to recover from that eggnog hangover (which we’re sure is what it’s from) with these photo projects that will catapult you right into 2013.
One of the best parts of photography is looking back on where you’ve been and seeing how you’ve improved. These ideas will give you a helping hand with just that.
Film Negative Time Capsule: It’s like a mini time machine, and you won’t even have to worry about those pesky time travel paradoxes. Just slip your negatives inside and let them hang out with their friends for a year or however long you want. Once that’s up, crack it open and see what you’ve been missing!
Recreate a Photo: We swear we aren’t up to no good with all of this time travel business. Take that photo that your mom loves to embarrass you with in front of your girlfriend/boyfriend and recreate it now that you’re older! Or, plan to go back to the same spot with friends years later and snap the same photo.
Reverse 365 Project: The 365 Project is a slick way to improve your photography while documenting a year in your life. It can get a little bit daunting, though. This spin on the classic lets you pull photos from your archive that you aren’t currently using and incorporate them into your new 365!
The Film Negative Time Capsule is a spin on the traditional time capsule. Instead of finding things to stow away for a few thousand years, this time capsule is one you add to as you go along.
It’s simple, each time you develop a roll of film, snip of a few frames from the negatives before scanning/enlarging and stow them away in the time capsule box. A year later, or as long as your willpower lasts, open the box and look at all of the memories!
It’s like a mini time machine, all without witnessing your dad’s 70′s moustache in person.
Short and sweet:
Take your scissors and cut a slit in the top of the box where you can slide in the negatives.
Add some sweet decorations to your time capsule. Make sure you warn others (and yourself) to keep out!
That’s it! The longer you wait and the more negatives you add, the sweeter the reward!
But I don’t Shoot Film!
Don’t worry! Here are some other ideas you can use to create a time capsule-esque effect.
There’s nothing better than a good reminiscing sesh with a photo album, but what if you were able to actually relive that moment? We found some cool photo projects that involve revisiting the same place to recreate a photo or reliving it!
Dear Photograph:“A picture of a picture, from the past, in the present.” Sounds confusing, looks like awesomeness. The idea behind Dear Photograph is to incorporate an old photo with the same setting years later. Hold the photo at arms length so that the scene matches, and snap the picture!
“BACK TO THE FUTURE 2 2011″ If you were to recreate that childhood photo that your mom loves to embarrass you with in front of all of your friends, this is what it would look like. Irina Werning’s photo project recreates old photos with results that are stunning faithful to the original.
The 365 Project is a great way to improve your photography and to document each day for the next year, but it’s also very daunting and can be difficult to complete. But what if you did a 365 with pictures you’ve already taken?
Pete Labrozzi created a new way to complete the 365 Project. Instead of taking a picture every day for the next year, Pete is using photos he’s taken from previous years.
In the smartphone age, our pictures barely last a hot minute. With this project, you can pull them out of the darkness and incorporate them into your future 365.
Some benefits according to Pete:
We <3 these projects. Inspired by the passage of time, they're great 2013 Inspirations!
