About this project
What would good friends do if you asked them to help you improve your photography skills?
They would give you good, helpful and often unexpected tips. And that’s exactly what this deck of cards will do. It's your photography friend, right in your pocket! The deck will challenge you with more than 40 tasks and help you find new exciting ways to make stunning photos with your iPhone. The tasks focus on seeking, identifying and arranging subjects on the small screen. We have a broad range of tasks that are just waiting to be solved by you. All are accessible for beginners, but interesting for advanced photographers as well! You can expect some real challenges!
However, really good friends do more!
They give you both advice and direction! And that’s what the additional 10 knowledge cards in the deck will do. These cards will help you open your eyes and take a closer look at photography - to understand visual concepts. The knowledge cards provide information on the fundamental basics of photographic composition.
And that works?
Yes, and you will love it! The concept is to combine both types of cards to obtain one photography challenge - out of 400 possible combinations!
This new deck of cards will include learning exercises from various fields of photography - especially for your iPhoneography. Completing the tasks will help you take better, more interesting photos more quickly.
Each supporter of the analog deck will receive a digital version of the iPhone photography cards (JPEG files) for his iPhone / iPad for free. So you really have the bigger picture cards always with you right in your pocket!
The cards will be a great everyday exercise tool, helping you learn how to take amazing photos on the go. Choose different approaches and perspectives to complete the tasks. But above all, be open to experimenting and having fun. Challenge yourself and become a better iPhone photographer day by day.
By the way: Most of the tasks can be solved with any modern phone camera. ;-)
We have already received an exceptional amount of positive reviews and recommendations for the "bigger picture cards" concept:

Risks and challenges
The biggest risk with any crowdfunding campaign involving a physical item is manufacturing and shipping. The good news is: I've done this before (see the English and German bigger picture cards)! I have been working with my printers for months to get the best possible materials and most timely shipping methods possible for the bigger picture cards. I guarantee - you will get the bigger picture iPhone photography cards, and I will do everything in my power to get the job done perfectly!
