The Gear That Actually Earns Its Place In My Bag
After far too many 'completely necessary' purchases, this is the short list that survives every shoot.

I have bought a lot of cameras with perfectly reasonable explanations. This is the honest subset that comes to every job.
- Two full-frame bodies — one is a backup, not a luxury.
- 35mm and 85mm primes. Ninety percent of everything.
- A 70-200 for ceremonies where I must stay invisible.
- Two wireless lav kits: vows and speeches are irreplaceable audio.
- A pocket gimbal camera for the moments a big camera would ruin.
Redundancy is not gear acquisition. Everything else probably is.
