GEAR I USE
I get asked pretty often what gear I use, so here’s the main list (the rest of my gear, and it is quite a few, is presented regullary on my Gear Youtube Playlist. Just click on the gear image you want to find out more, and a link will open. These are affiliate links. If you are willing to buy, you pay the same price, I get a small kickback if you buy something. It’s one of the simplest ways to support my work (besides watching my Youtube videos and following my journey on Instagram), and it genuinely helps. Thanks.
Disclaimer: I'm a professional (this is my full time job), so I really need to use this equipment, but is it not mandatory for your budget or own performance.
