ShutterCal: A Love Story

We're a calendar based daily photo journaling community built by four friends, to be enjoyed by the world. The concept is simple: we give you a calendar, link you to the site's community, and encourage you to document your life with one daily photo. The image and subject matter are up to you, but the idea is clear — documenting one image each day will leave you with an impressive visual history of your life.

As time passes, you’ll have an interesting window into the happenings of every single day. You’ll remember people you met, places you’ve been, and things you did. Your photography skills will improve naturally with daily practice, and — best of all — you'll receive the encouragement of others involved in their own calendar projects within ShutterCal's friendly community.

ShutterCal began as a personal photography experiment in the winter of 2007. Our friends kept telling us they wanted to join in, so we released a public beta version in January 2008. Since then, we've grown into the world’s leading dedicated daily-photo website. We continue our quest to encourage people to become better photographers and documentarians of their lives, and help them make the most out of their daily photo project.
