What is in your camera bag?
In my camera bag will always be two bodies ( Sony a1, a7cr and the Sony a7siii) with the 70200 f2.8 GM, Sony 24mm f1.4 GM, 35mm f1.4 GM, 50mm f1.2 Gm, 85mm f1.4 II, 135mm f1.8 GM
What is your go to in your Alpha kit and why?
For portraits, my go to alpha is the Sony a1 + 135mm f1.8 GM. With that combination, I am able to capture so much detail due to the high MP of the a1 and with the 135mm f1.8 GM producing smooth, buttery bokeh and sharp images. For landscapes lately, my go-to Sony alpha kit is the Sony a1 + 12-24mm f2.8 GM. Giving a unique perspective at the 12mm end with corner to corner shaprness
Most memorable moment shooting with Alpha?
My most memorable moment is shooting with one of my favourite combos, the Sony a7RM3 + 70200 f2.8 GM. I was recently shooting a wedding on location in one of the local parks. We came across a man-made waterfall and an idea struck at me. I asked the couple if they could stand in the middle of the waterfall on the rocks. Using my trusty 70200 f2.8 and combining it with the Sony a7RM3, I was able to switch to crop mode to get that extra reach while standing on the other side of the lake. I had rested my 70200 against a ledge to hold it as steady as possible, shooting at a shutter speed of 1/50s and getting motion in the water. After capturing the shot and showing it to the couple, seeing the smile and tears in their eyes gave me joy, knowing I had captured that special shot for my clients.
