After 20 Years, This Is the Camera Kit I’m Finally Happy With

Here’s the camera kit I’m using in 2026 and, more importantly, why.

After nearly 20 years of buying, selling, switching systems, and chasing the “perfect” setup, this is the first time I can honestly say I’m completely happy with my gear.

Not because it’s the most expensive or the most hyped, but because every piece has a clear role and supports how I actually create.

Everything you see here was paid for with my own money. No sponsorships. No free gear.

If you enjoy thoughtful photography, visual storytelling, and a slower approach to creating, you’re in the right place.
