What is your go to in your Alpha kit and why?

My go-to lenses in my camera kit are the Sony 85mm F1.4 GM and the 24mm F1.4 GM.

I rely on them for every shoot. I first fell in love with this combo while shooting weddings early in my career, appreciating how they made me assertive and able to follow the action. Now, I use them for portraits, events, fashion, and campaigns.

My shooting style is very fast-paced and adaptable. I thrive in the action, dual-wielding two camera bodies. These prime lenses perfectly complement my shoot style — they're compact, and lightweight, and their F1.4 f-stops create stunning, creamy imagery for both posed and candid moments.

 

Most memorable moment shooting with Alpha?

Among the countless memorable moments with Alpha, the standout was when I first got into the A7R series.

I still use this line of cameras, and watching it evolve has been amazing. For most of my ten-year photography career, the A7R series has been my go-to. I love its design and have taken it overseas to Japan, Korea, Europe, and more for leisure and professional projects.

It has always delivered incredible content.
