a few people have been asking about our camera gear so i thought i would share it all here. our strap is a vintage gift from kyle's dad, but etsy has some really awesome options. for most of the photos on the blog, we use a mix of two cameras:
- nikon D5100 with a 35mm 1.8 lens: in my opinion, this is a great starter camera. it takes really nice photos, is affordable, and gives you the opportunity to learn manual without spending a ton of money
- canon G16 powershot: we've had this series for years and have gone through the G12, 14, 15 and now 16. it takes really great photos [especially in low light] and fits in your purse/pocket easily. this is typically the only camera we take out after sunset. we also use this for all of our videos.
for editing:
- lightroom: this product alone has a lot of really cool features/editing tools to work with as a beginner
- VSCO film for lightroom: once you learn lightroom, VSCO film is a fun add on. this is a recent purchase for me and so far i have loved all of the versatility, i would highly recommend!
