my choice of photography equipment

I am frequently asked about my gear – what I use at weddings, what I carry with me on a regular basis, and what I travel with.

The rest of these pages are divided by category, listing the items that make up my every day equipment.  Each item links to the B&H store, which is where I purchase the majority of my equipment.   Aside from just listing the equipment I own and regularly use, I also list some of my suggestions for other equipment that would make excellent additions to a camera bag, as well as equipment that I have used and really liked.

I’m a bit of a techno junkie. I love state of the art equipment, and I love the ease with which technology allows you to immerse yourself in photography itself.  I also firmly believe that as photographers,  our style should always be evolving, borne from our choices and not from our limitations.

And as such, I try to keep my equipment up to date, so that any limitations I have as a photographer, are my own, and not due to my equipment.

.My first experience with photography as a young kid was with my dad’s PraktikaMat, and my first camera was a Pentax ME Super.  This was followed by a Pentax Super-A.  I bought my first Nikon in 1996 – a Nikon F90x. And in 2002 I embraced digital photography completely, selling all my film bodies immediately.

Since then I’ve used a steady progression of different D-SLRs of both the Nikon and Canon systems.  And on these pages you’ll find what I am currently using, along with a short description about the specific choice.
