Good Date Ideas for a Girl Who Likes Photography
From first impression to first date to that first kiss, the dating process is often an exasperating yet exhilarating roller-coaster ride. Great relationships blossom with imagination, and knowing what makes the object of your affection tick is the keystone to creating memorable dates at any stage of courtship. For a girl who loves photography, either casually or with the intention of making it a career someday, thinking of ways to get closer to her through her interests will demonstrate not only your originality but that you appreciate her passions in life.

Asking her Out on that First Date
-
One way to get her attention from the start is by purchasing a disposable camera and taking pictures of everything that would comprise what you would plan for your first date. The restaurant where you made reservations, the places you plan to take her or even clever ways of capturing the words of the question you are really asking her: "Would you go out with me?" Take the camera to get the photos developed and then give her the claim ticket. When she picks them up, they will speak volumes.
Take her to an Art Gallery
-
Check local newspaper listings or go online to art gallery directories and seek out any photography exhibitions in the area. Surprise her with a trip to see the latest works by local or famous artists. Even if you don't understand things like F-stops or exposures, her admiration of the medium will shine through and she'll probably be happy to explain it all to you if you let her.
-
Arrange a Scavenger Hunt
-
Create a list of items to snap on a visual scavenger hunt. Go hunting together — each armed with a camera — to photograph these objects and on the journey get to know one another even better. You don't even need to be any good at taking pictures, and hers will most likely be more impressive, but the time spent together will be the reward, and you'll have some great photos to remember the day.
Portraits of Each Other
-
As the relationship grows, take photographs describing how you feel about one another through the images. Showcase the positive attributes of each other's personalities and make fun of the pet peeves. Get pictures taken together in strange and wonderful settings. These moments will be forever captured on film and serve as a romantic stroll down memory lane sometime in the future.
