This is for the photographers

I get asked a lot about what camera gear I use and how I shoot my own BTS. So I put it in one place.

I spent years figuring things out the hard way.

What gear was actually worth buying, how to pose seniors and get to to relax, how to create my own BTS. Nobody handed me a roadmap. I just kept showing up and learning. This page is me handing you the roadmap.

Whether you're brand new and trying to figure out where to start, or you've been shooting for a while and feel stuck, there's something here for you.
