p.3 #2 · Engagement Shoots... What's In Your Bag?


D7000 and d300 both on op/tech LONG straps, 17-55 on one, 70-200 vr 1 strap on the other...PW's on both, one speedlight on a 7ft stand...one thinktank lens changer with an 11-16, and one generic one with a nikon 10.5mm....

I like the long op/tech straps, the 70-200 has an eye bolt screwed into the foot with the strap attached, strap across my chest so it hangs nicely....

Public areas i usually work like that, secluded areas i'll just bring my tamrac backpack with more...

I'll wear two 5DII, one with a 70-200 and the other with a 50. I'll have my 24 on my hip with a Think Tank belt. No bags, no lights as all my session are in the daytime.

for me it purely depends on the locations we are gonna be shooting in-
it could be

1.) 16-35L, 50L, 85L, 45 TS
2.) 35L, 50L, 85L, 45 TS

If I know i can play with a lot of lines and architecture - the 16-35 gets nod over the 35.

For lighting, I bring an LED and 580ex2 with off camera cord. But I rarely use these especiall the flash. Just for emergency.

Just about everything I own.

But what I carry with me is typically the 17-35, 35 f/2, 50 f/1.4, 85 f/1.4, and my 70-200 and a few speed-lights aren't too far away from me.

Varies on the couple and the shoot - sometimes 24-70 and 70-200 sometimes 24, 50 and 85 plus at least one 580 and pocket wizards.

Depends on the shoot for us. Usually it's 1 camera each and our normal compliment of lenses. Sometimes we don't take the 70-200. Lighting gear varies based on location/shoot/couple.
