MY GEAR

Canon 5D MK III - My favorite camera I've used so far. Full Frame professional camera, This has been deemed a "workhorse". Great to shoot with in low light situations.

​

Canon 700D - My first DSLR, this camera still produces fantastic images. A great mid-range camera.

​

Canon 24-70mm f4 L IS USM - Perfect for taking wider angle photos, group shots with incredibly sharp results. It's macro feature is fantastic for getting in close on those finer details.

​

Canon 70-200mm f2.8 L IS USM - An iconic lens that coupled with the 5D MK III produces amazing results, it's large aperture means it works great in low light conditions. Great for when you want to take photos from a bit of a distance to the subject. 

​

Canon 50mm f1.8 - I picked this up with my 700D, also known as the "nifty fifty" such a great prime lens for portraits and for what it can do it's, low price is unbelievable.

​

Tamron 90mm f2.8 Macro 1:1 - Another great portrait lens. With it's macro feature getting in close provides another option for images, incredibly sharp.

​

Samyang 14mm f2.8 ED AS IF UMC -This is my go to lens for taking shots of the night sky, incredibly wide and sharp, gives you the ability to capture a large amount of the sky whilst being able to have a foreground composition.

​

Yongnuo YN-568EX II Speedlite - An "off-camera" flash. This is a great speedlite, inexpensive and I've personally preferred it over the more expensive canon version, allows almost 360° rotation allowing you to bounce the flash off any surface. Can also be used off camera with a remote trigger.

​

DJI Mavic Air - What a drone! brings a new perspective to my photography. It's compact meaning that it is easily portable and doesn't take up to much room in the bag, great for traveling.

​

PolarPro Mavic Air ND Filters - ND4/PL, ND8/PL, ND16/PL, ND32/PL, ND64/PL and ND1000 gives me the option to help create cinematic looking footage no matter the conditions. I opted for the polariser version of these filters so I can reduce glare and increase the contrast. The ND1000 to capture long exposure photographs to capture the movement in the water and clouds.

​

Lee Filters - Big Stopper - 10 stop filter to produce long exposures during the day when the light is too strong, creates movement in clouds and turns water into a "silky dreamy" state.

​

Lee Filters - Little Stopper - 6 stop filter which is used around sunrise and sunset when the light is not as bright to create the same results as the Big Stopper.

​

Lee Filters - 105mm Landscape Polarising Filter - A polariser helps to take the glare off surfaces and depending on the level used can either increase contrast to make images pop or decrease it. Used with the Lee Filter system.

​

GoPro Hero 5 - Compact action camera, waterproof. Great for documenting travel and capturing those holiday memories. Love to use this for time lapses.

​

Red Snapper RSF-284M Tripod & RSH-12 Ball Head - Originally picked this up years and years ago, great tripod & ball head, not heavy but extremely sturdy with a great price.

​

Manfrotto MT055CXPRO4 Carbon Fibre Tripod - A new addition to the "Kit" an extremely sturdy carbon fibre tripod that's lightweight and at professional grade. 

​

Manfrotto XPRO Ball Head with Top Lock- An amazing heavy duty ball head to compliment the carbon fibre tripod, this ball head can hold up to 9kg's of camera equipment

 

Lowepro ProTactic 450aw - I have always been a fan of Lowepro and what they produce. I needed a new bag and recently brought this to be able to fit more of my gear into it, perfect for traveling.

​

Lexar Professional 32GB Class 10 UHS-I 600x Speed 90MB/s SDHC - A great SD card, fast transfer speed and reliable.

​

Samsung Memory 64GB Pro Plus - Used in the GoPro and Mavic Air, extremely reliable and fast .

​

3 Legged Thing QR11-LC L Bracket - A high quality L bracket, that allows switching from Landscape to Portrait quick and easy. Compatible with Arca Swiss style clamps and heads.

​

Neewer Intervalometer - Remote Shutter for the 5D MK III that helps take long exposures or to help reduce camera shake, can be setup to command the camera to take unlimited amount of photos at set times, perfect for time lapses.
