Written by: Lawrence


I have to say the camera bag selection is almost as important as the camera selection. I know you must think I am going crazy. Well, hear me out.

Ok let’s set the frame work. Let’s say you are an on location commercial/fashion photographer and require different lenses and miscellaneous accessories for each shoot. Well based on need, the location commercial photographer needs a camera bag with ample space to fit the most used lenses, compact flash cards, light meter and maybe a laptop compartment to carry a computer for tethered shooting. How about if you are a travel photographer? You need a light camera bag to carry the bare necessities right? You get the picture. I have two camera bags and possibly need more depending on the purpose. You can never only have one camera bag. So let the first camera bag you purchase be the camera bag used for your primary type of photography. If you are like me go with the Lowepro AW computrekker.

As a weekend photographer, I found myself with limited time and limited resources in terms of expanding my photographic ability due to my career. Like many weekend photography warriors, there are only 2 hours on the weekdays and maybe 8 hours or so total on the weekend to learn and grow. These time constraints is what motivated me into creating this online photography resource. I needed a photography hub where all the information I referred to is stored in one easy to navigate online location. I see this more of my online repository of photography information gathered through time. I am very proud of the success of my blog offering of "Photographer Interview Series". You will read in-depth interviews from the photography world's famous photographers. Names like David Tejada, Nick Onken, Michael Grecco and David Bean to name a few. The interview series has also expanded to include weekend photographers and now wedding photographers with the similar goal of learning from each other. My goal is to evolve this site to be the premier go to resource for photographer interviews and equipment reviews.
