Getting creative with a camera

You will need a camera and a bit of time to execute this one.

Price: 0-50 (all you need is a camera (borrow one if you don't have one) and whatever it costs to get the images printed at a photo store or buy photo paper if you have a printer and a photo album if you chose to purchase one (you could also make one or use shutter fly))

How: Take pictures of the words will, you, marry, & me. Compile other photos of your time together. Get the images printed if needed and make sure the four "word" pictures are at the end.

Idea #1: Write "Will you marry me?" on poster boards and take a picture of you and the board in front of an important place in your relationship (think you first date, first kiss, or maybe where you met) Take her to that location if possible and give her the photo album.

Idea #2: Take pictures of places where these words are.

For example: there is a street near our house called I. E. Willets. Zoom in on the "will" and snap a photo. The word "you" is on billboards and signs all over the place, I wouldn't stress about this one. Marry might be a hard one to find. Think jewelry advertisements. If you are good with photo shop you could alter pictures of movie or holiday billboards (add the "r" to Mary and change the "e" to an "a" as in Merry Christmas). Me should also be easy lots of words have a me in it- you could snap the begining of the word merry or meat or meet or meak... you get the picture. (haha!)
