In this episode, I'm sharing my minimalist approach to photography gear! I doubt that it's a surprise when I tell you that I am not much of a gear-head when it comes to my photography business. Obviously there are certain tools that I need to do my job and do it well, but I am not the person to go out and buy the newest camera out there.
I got my start in photography with a $300 camera. It was a crappy camera, but I loved it. I had it for years until I upgraded. Truthfully, it is so much more about knowing how to use the tools than it is the newest and latest and greatest gear.
That said, gear can still make a difference, and that's why I want to take you inside my gear bag on a typical brand photography session. It's not super fancy. It's definitely not complicated. And it's what I have at 99% of sessions.
