Five Star Gift Ideas

For your husband, who has a passion for photography, there are several meaningful and personal gift ideas that you can consider for his birthday. Here are a few options:

1. Camera Accessories: Surprise him with a new lens, tripod, camera strap, or camera bag that he's had his eye on. These accessories will enhance his photography experience and cater to his specific needs.

2. Photography Books: Consider gifting him some photography books that showcase the work of photographers from the '70s and '80s, as these decades might be particularly appealing to him due to their unique aesthetics. You could also look for books that cover techniques, lighting, or the history of photography to further his knowledge and inspiration.

3. Vintage Camera: Look for a vintage camera from the 1970s era, which is not only a nod to his interest in photography but also a nostalgic and unique gift. There are many online platforms or specialty stores where you can find vintage cameras in good working condition.

4. Photography Workshop: Enroll him in a photography workshop or sign him up for an online course where he can learn new techniques, improve his skills, or dive deeper into the world of '70s photography. This not only allows him to pursue his passion but also provides a great opportunity for him to meet like-minded individuals.

5. Customized Camera Strap: Surprise him with a personalized camera strap that is not only functional but also reflects his unique personality. You could have his initials embroidered on it or select a design that resonates with his taste.

6. Photo Print Subscription: Consider a subscription to a service that sends him printed photographs every month. This way, he can receive curated prints from professional photographers or explore different thematic collections to display or add to his inspiration wall.

7. Darkroom Equipment: If your husband enjoys working with film photography, consider gifting him darkroom equipment such as a development kit, film enlarger, or a set of high-quality printing paper. This will allow him to experiment with the classic techniques of developing and printing his own photos.

8. Photo Collage or Album: Create a custom photo collage or album featuring his best shots or memorable moments from your lives together. This personalized gift will not only showcase his talent but also serve as a beautiful keepsake.

Remember, the key to selecting the perfect gift is to consider his specific interests and preferences. By choosing something that aligns with his passion for photography and the aesthetics of the '70s, you'll be able to give him a meaningful and personal gift that he'll truly appreciate.

Or you can get him a star map with the date when he was born.

“It was such a sentimental and romantic present for my husband's birthday (since he is so into astronomy and the moon on the background). The order came super well packaged, and now it is the gem in the basement :)”
