the gear

I like living in urban areas, so I need something that fits in parking decks. I rebuild old cars and enjoy the outdoors, so I need a truck. Solution- Tacoma

Also lightweight and comfortable.

This is the perfect backpack for travelers who generally stay out of hostels and prefer places with wifi and a power outlet. I use the top for items I need to frequently access while the rear is divided to hold my camera equipment and mini tripod. Best part, the bag has a pocket for a laptop and e-reader in the front. Lastly, optional straps are available to strap my penny board to the front.

I like this bag because it doesn't cost a fortune and it's very durable. Additionally, if you cut the pockets out of the inside of the lid you get a bag with an exceptional amount of storage for a carry on.

I enjoy being in front of the camera more than being behind the camera. This bit not only makes a second camera man possible but also assist in setting up shots

When shopping for my first DSLR a seasoned photographer recommended that I save money on the body, because the magic happens in the lens. After some reading I discovered a low F Stop gives dramatic pictures and also works in low light. This set-up represents nearly 90% of the stills I take.

Additional: The cheapest wireless remote you can find (x2)

I choose to carry an e-reader because I like having a book. However, books are big and take up a lot of room. I choose the cheapest Kindle because I'm sure to loose, drop, or damage it.

Strap this to your backpack for a quick and easy way to get around.
