Here's an inside look on my camera bag and all the software I use to get my job done! Last updated 2/25/25
CAMERA GEAR

Main camera body

Backup body

Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8
Main lens that I use for portraits, action shots, video, etc.

Mainly a backup lens, I'll use it if it fits the vibe for the session but I'll pick up my 70-200 first, almost always!

I use this lens mainly for editorials & anytime I need a wide angle

Used for stabilization for video footage


Underwater housing for shots like this! & my husband's shark diving hobby
BAGS

I have the white one... I don't recommend that color around animals.

This fits all my gear plus my computer!

Shoot Day Bag
First aid kit, rags, body brush, mini clippers, black halter & lead rope, fly spray, bug spray, peppermints... more listed in this blog post
SOFTWARE

Adobe Creative Cloud which gives access to Lightroom, Lightroom Classic, and Photoshop. I use Lr Classic for culling & color correcting, Lr for video color correcting, and Ps for retouching.

For black background image clipping during busy season or for difficult edits.

InShot
Where I primarily edit my video clips for reels. I will sometimes use Instagram or Capcut as well.

CRM where I keep all my client's info organized, including emails, invoices, contracts, questionnaires, etc.

Used for 99% of my graphic design needs

Website host (but if I could start over again I would absolutely use Showit or any site that can host Wordpress for best SEO)
