NEWS: I upgraded to a Sony a7iii
Back in 2013 a friend of mine told me he was selling his Nikon d3200 and asked if I wanted to purchase it. I had been wanting a camera for years so I jumped at the opportunity and handed over the $500 as soon as I could. Flash forward 6 years, and that camera has been with me everywhere. From my first Pride parade, to my first time leaving the country, from Iceland, to Paris, to Venice and Romeβ¦ Itβs seen 12 countries. Itβs seen protests, itβs seen love, itβs more than paid for itself.
For 6 years I have used the same camera, and the same lens, to capture every photo iβve taken for clients. Needless to say, it was desperately time for an upgrade. Luckily I have a good friend (Brian, @jazzblueae) who works at Kenmore Camera and he helped me pick out the perfect camera for me. Iβve spent all summer saving for it, and I finally was able to bite the bullet (and deplete all of my savings lol) and make the big purchase.
I have never spent this much money at once before.
I have never made this big of an investment in myself and in my business.
And I am so excited to see what I can create now that, as my friend Mistie put it, my equipment matches my talent.
To celebrate the new camera, My friend Melonie and I played around and captured these fun photos together. I look forward to getting to create more in the future! Enjoy xoxo
