Bags

Let’s talk camera bags. Currently I have two options.

One is for function and one is for fashion and function.

Function:

My husband bought me an Amazon Basics backpack. This one is for when I want it all! It’s super convenient to grab on my way out the door and it holds it all! It’s best for travel, hiking, and when I’m not sure what all I’ll need/want.

No, it’s not pretty, but it’s amazingly great for packing around everything I might need and then some. It’s already very heavy with my gear and I still have tons of room for more!

It has three main zippered pockets: one for a laptop, one for cameras/lenses and one for all your other gear. Everything is padded extremely well and I really like the way the main section has removable dividers so you can arrange it to suit your needs! It also has extra straps for security that are pretty handy! I love that the outside has straps to hold my tripod! It also has small side pockets.

Sometimes I do wish it was a little prettier, but it but it does the trick.

Fashion:

I bought this one from Jo Totes because I wanted something pretty that I could easily carry my camera around town. It doesn’t weigh too much or even look like a camera bag. This beauty looks like a purse! It still has nice padding and comes with a moveable divider. There are several little pockets to hold extras. Sometimes I do wish it was a bit bigger. I can fit my camera with either one extra lens or my wallet.
