What's in my Camera bag?

Below is a list of the equipment I use.  (Updated in July 2017)
All photos are active links to products on Amazon prime (Cheers to free 2 day shipping!)

Canon 5d mark iii

I carry two Canon 5d Mark iii's and have for the last 4-5 years.  
​
22.3 megapixel, Full Frame, 1080p

Sigma art 35mm f/1.4

I use this lens to get a wider angle in my portrait sessions.  If I want to capture the full scenery around a couple or individual, or I want to elongate my client.  

Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L IS ii

This lens allows you to observe from a distance.  Its a key tool for wedding photography.  It is also nice for photographing children because you can allow them to act natural and play while you sit back far away.  

Canon 50mm f/1.2L

This is my go-to lens.  With a maximum aperture of f/1.2 it gets me through any portrait and low light situation.  It is sharp, and I personally love the 50mm focal length.

Fujifilm Instax Camera

What's more fun than a Polaroid??  I bring this to every shoot i do! 

Fujifilm X-A2

This is my "fun" camera.  It is light, it is relatively small, and people aren't too intimidated by it.  I'll bring this to parties and fun events with friends. 

Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8

I use this lens in the rush time of weddings, or for exploring - times when a prime lens will not do the trick.  I chose the sigma version over the canon version because it had great reviews, and was about 1/3 of the price.  I couldn't be happier with it! This works for wide angles, macro, and general walk-around photos.  The constant 2.8 aperture is the key reason I chose this lens. 

Sigma 105mm macro

This lens is a lifesaver for weddings!  I bought this specifically for detail shots.  It makes the ring shots so easy!  I also keep it on one of my mark iii's while i'm shooting portraits as it is a
