Somehow it does not absorb my sweats simply ’cause I keep it out of… I keep it out of my sweaty areas as much as possible.

However, this strap is actually the sling strap from this bag right here. So I actually use two HoldFast straps as my camera straps. It doesn’t work for me because the HoldFast absorbs all the sweat when you’re shooting in a 100 degree weather, in a 100 degree humidity here in Savannah. Everybody and their grandma, every hipster photographer, every beginner, every advanced photographer, every amateur, everyone has a hip camera strap. Very, very soft police siren in the background.Ġ4:52: The camera straps are really popular right now. However, sometimes you don’t want crisp, you don’t want sharp, you want a very soft… Police siren in the background. Nothing will give me a more beautiful, crispier, sharper ring shot that this. However, my 100 millimeter Canon is the best lens that I find to get ring shots. They’re great for getting ring shots or macro shots of anything you want.
CONTAX 645 PORTRA PLUS
There’s like a plus one, plus two, a plus four, sometimes I stack them. The next item on my bag is these Hoya Close-up Macro Filters. Just search for it on my channel and you’ll find it.
CONTAX 645 PORTRA HOW TO
I have some fantastic videos on how to meter for different stocks.
CONTAX 645 PORTRA SERIES
If I’m really pressed for time and I wanna shoot film, I really, I feel comfortable using this knowing that my focus would be on point, everything will be sharp, I can shoot 36 exposures, so I can move a lot quicker and it’s a really good backup camera to the Contax, and I can fit all my L Series lenses on it very well.Ġ4:03: Next in my bag, I have a Sekonic L-358 Light Meter. Sometimes I’ll use this instead of my Contax. I love this camera, super practical, super fast auto focus. My backup film camera is a 35 millimeter Canon EOS-1. We have a Mr and Mrs box, I have a pretty neutral color, it’s kind of soft peach or a blush.Ġ3:17: I think this works with pretty much any color that I need and afterwards a Photoshop where in Lightroom I can turn this pinker or peachier or even white, if I want to, very easily. You can never have enough memory cards especially ’cause I also shoot video at weddings sometimes.Ġ3:06: Next we have some spools of ribbon and some other styling items that I bring. I also bring a little Pelican case with tons of memory cards. Although the bokeh on the 1.2 is perfect for matching the Contax bokeh on the Zeiss 80 millimeter which we’ll talk about next. And its a really great backup lens with really fast auto focus, much faster auto focus than the 50mm f/1.2. If I lose it, if I break it, I really don’t care. Next, we have the Nifty Fifty just the 100 50mm f/1.8 from Canon.

I love this lens, it never fails me for ring shots, I absolutely, absolutely recommend it.Ġ2:24: And I have Sigma 35mm f/1.4 which is actually on the camera that we’re shooting with right now.

I also have the L series 100mm f/2.8 Macro. I don’t have the L series, I think that the L series isn’t absolutely worth the money because this lens does the job perfectly fine and it costs I think $1,000 less than the 1.2 L series.

My second favorite lens is my 85mm f/1.8. I probably keep this in the bag, in this lens, excuse me, for 90% of the wedding. I use a 50mm f/1.2, it’s probably my favorite lens.
CONTAX 645 PORTRA FULL
I use full frame 5D Mark IIIs with battery grips. And I think 95% is a pretty good number.Ġ1:37: We have two camera bodies. I can cover a lot of weddings, 95% of the weddings, 95% of situations with this bag. So, this is my entire digital wedding photography bag. When I started to become hybrid wedding photographer, I realized that I was carrying too much to weddings and I had to really minimize that a lot. Sometimes I wish I had a 7200, but I can live with this. We’re gonna have my digital bag, my film bag, and my film bag.Ġ0:43: So when you’re thinking about becoming a hybrid wedding photographer, you’re definitely going to have to make some decisions about what kind of equipment, what kind of digital equipment can you live without? Perhaps you don’t need your light stands, perhaps you can bring less flashes, perhaps you can bring less lenses, perhaps you can make your lenses smaller by trading that huge 7200 for a 100 millimeter which does the job 95% of the time. This tutorial is gonna have three quick parts. I’m gonna talk to you guys a little bit today about what kind of gear does a hybrid wedding photographer carry? Obviously, hybrid, we sometimes tend to carry twice as much as a regular photographer because you need your digital equipment and you need your film equipment, and sometimes you even carry an extra bag with backup equipment or extra rolls of film, or you have a second shooter, you need a third bag.
