25 Great Mugs for Photographers

November 21, 2020 · Steph Nelson

Whether you’re trying to get a fantastic sunrise shot or staying up all night photographing star trails, photographers need their caffeine. Nothing’s better than a nice cup of coffee or tea to get you going – except, perhaps, for a photography-themed cup of coffee or tea.

It’s one of those things you don’t know you need until you get it. A photo coffee mug that matches your personal philosophy as a photographer or simply makes you smile before a shoot can be a great way to begin a photography adventure. It can also be a conversation starter or help advertise your photography business.

Here are some options out there for photographers who like drinking their tea or coffee in style.
