My Equipment

Well, we all know that it is the photographer that makes the image, not the gear. But let me tell you, having the right gear really helps. This is why I have gone to great expense to make sure I have the best equipment available, ensuring having backups in case something goes wrong, and the ability to handle nearly every situation. Now I am not saying that I have all the gear I want (for an equipment junkie, I don’t know if that is possible) but I do have everything I need. For those that are interested, here is is listed out for you.

Although this blog is not my primary blog anymore, I will try to keep it updated. You can see my new blog here: Red Tie Photography Blog
