Inside My Camera Bag Part 2 - The Lenses

Wanna peek inside a pro photographers camera bag? Learn which camera lenses I use, when I use them, along with example photos!

Want to learn what lenses I have in my camera bag, when I would use each one, AND see some sample photos from each lens?

This is Part 2 of the 3 part series “what’s in my camera bag” where I’m giving you a behind the scenes, guided tour of my photography equipment.

In part one I spoke about my camera body and my shooting accessories - the things that actually do make it into my camera bag on a regular basis.  So if you missed that and you want to watch it, go back one post and you’ll see it :)

Today, we’re going to tackle my lens collection, and I’ll be sharing what I have, when I use it each lens, and giving you a few example photos of each one. 

In the description under the video you’ll find links to all these lenses, and that’s also where you’ll find a link to our free photography class, where I teach pro tricks for professional level photos, so that you can get pro level photos regardless of the gear you have. 

Because, above all, remember gear does not make the photo -you do - your gear simply gives you more options and choices! If you don’t learn how to use light, composition, change camera settings and so on, your images just won’t have that WOW effect you’re looking for, regardless of which lens you use.

So, we’ve got 7 lenses to get through today, so click play on the video to find out what they all are, and see the sample images!

Don’t forget, lenses are just a small part in the overall photography jigsaw - far more important is the light you use, your camera settings, and your vision for the photo.

Coming up next week is the final part of our three part series! This is where I’m going to be talking camera bags, and the other little accessories that don’t get much of an outing,  but that can be fun to have. Be sure to come back then to watch.

Over to you!

Now I want to know, what camera lens is your favourite, which one do you use the most - or which one would you give your eye teeth for?  Let me know in the comments. 

And of course, if you’re not yet subscribed to our email list, what are you waiting for? Our emails are full of inspiration and helpful tutorials, and I promise they’ll help keep you focused and taking the next step toward beautiful photos. 

But for now, thanks so much for tuning in and watching these videos, and I’ll see you again next week!
