This is my bag fully assembled and ready to rock a wedding. I try and put everything back in the same pocket that way I get a quick read at the end of the night on of all of my gear is coming home with me. The two camera bodies I use pictured above are the Canon Mark IV & the Canon M5. The full line up of lenses I own. With these guys I’ve got everything more than covered. Pretty little lightweight tripod, isn’t she! Canon 600EX-RT Speedlite & Pocket wizards for off camera flash. You can tell it’s been through a lot. The Think Tank Airport 2.0 is seriously my favorite piece of equipment. And last but not least my memory card pouch!

It’s taken me a while to craft this bag of tricks. Slowly but surely you will get there. Invest in your tools and buy QUALITY lenses and equipment. You will spend more time learning the gear you aspire to shoot with.

As always, I am an open book! If you have any questions please also feel free to post a reply on my blog here or contact me through instagram! I love hearing from other photographers and seeing what people think!
