#MakeBeautiful: Amit Gupta

Amit Gupta is all about #MakeBeautiful. He’s the founder of Photojojo, the destination for all things photo creativity; from wearable pics to global photo collaborations, the site gets creative juices flowing (and has the how-tos to back it up). 

Amit and Photojojo encourage everyone to #MakeBeautiful through photography—and we’re obviously down with that mission. We’re thrilled to feature Amit in our first issue of Snap.

All of my projects have been about creating personality and fun on the Internet. Jelly, the free-for-all world-wide coworking movement, BarCamp, personal projects like urban camping in Times Square with visitors from around the world, and of course Photojojo!

Life is too short to take things too seriously, and I think most of us spend so much time trying to be more efficient, more productive….we tend to forget that it’s really about fun—finding it, and spreading it to others.

We make beauty at Photojojo by making photography more fun for everyone! There’s a million and six sites that will give you camera and lens reviews and breathlessly give you every PR release or app launch. That’s not us.

We scour the depths of the Internet looking for the most creative, inspiring, and quirky projects. We crawl the Earth for obscure photo tools that bring the joy back into your shots. We put little dinosaurs in every box we send to our customers.

We do it because we adore this crazy thing called photography. We think it’s the most beautiful, simple, and immediate art form ever created, and we want you to love it every bit as much as we do.
