Today, I’m sharing what’s in my camera bag! I like to keep my setup lightweight and portable, so you’ll see that I don’t usually carry a ton of equipment. For photographers, I hope this helps you if you’re looking to build a simple gear list.

For brand clients and those looking to book a photoshoot, I hope this puts you at ease! My goal for our photoshoot is for it to NOT feel like a huge production – I want us to feel like we’re just hanging out, and I just happen to have a camera.
