Give time.
Some gifts are things. This one is an afternoon: a cardboard camera, a 0.3 millimetre hole, a picture slowly appearing in the developer. You give a seat in the Stuttgart workshop, or a camera for home. The voucher arrives by email right away, with a card to print.

What is a good gift voucher for giving time?
One that leaves something behind: a Both In Time voucher gives a seat in the pinhole camera workshop in Stuttgart for €87, or a handmade camera for €79 that the recipient uses to make a picture of their own, delivered to an address in Germany. The time passes as with any experience, but afterwards there is a negative on the table that would not exist without that afternoon.
Most time gifts end with the experience itself: a dinner, a cooking class, a day at the spa. In the workshop two people expose one shared negative, develop it in Caffenol, and each person takes their camera, their negative and a contact print home. The voucher carries no date and is valid until the end of the third calendar year after the year of purchase; the exact date is in the voucher email.
How it works
You pick a voucher and pay. Within a few minutes you get an email with the code, a printable card and the invoice. The recipient redeems the code whenever they like: the workshop voucher when booking a date, the camera voucher with a delivery address in Germany.
Which voucher fits?
The workshop voucher is an experience gift: an afternoon in Stuttgart, camera in hand, a picture appearing in the developer tray. It fits people who would rather do something than own something, and it deliberately has no date: the recipient picks their own, whenever they are ready.
The camera voucher is something to hold: a handmade pinhole camera the recipient orders to their home. It fits when the gift should be a thing that stays. Delivery goes to an address in Germany.
Still a gift on the last day
Every camera is built by hand after the order. That takes its time, and shortly before Christmas it can get tight. The voucher does not have that problem: it arrives by email within minutes, with a printable card you can put under the tree or into an envelope. The gift happens now, the building happens after.

Common questions about the voucher
- What is a good gift voucher for giving time?
One that leaves something behind. A Both In Time voucher gives a seat in the pinhole camera workshop in Stuttgart or a handmade camera, and in the end the recipient holds a picture they made themselves.
- Will the voucher arrive in time if I order today?
Yes. After payment, the email with the code, the printable card and the invoice arrives within a few minutes. Nothing is shipped, so there is no delivery time.
- Does the recipient have to pick a date right away?
No. The workshop voucher is good for one seat at any future date in Stuttgart, and the voucher is valid until the end of the third calendar year after purchase.
- Is the workshop date already set?
Not yet. Dates in Stuttgart are announced on the workshop page, and the voucher is good for one seat at any of them, until the end of the third calendar year after the year of purchase.
- Is this a voucher for couples?
Yes, in two ways. The camera voucher is one for both: the camera is built for two people, and each half of the negative is exposed by a different person. In the workshop you work on one negative as a pair, but seats are booked per person: a couple gets two workshop vouchers.
- Can the camera be delivered to another country?
No. The camera voucher is redeemed with a delivery address in Germany. The workshop voucher, on the other hand, can be bought and given from anywhere; it is redeemed in Stuttgart.
