  • Ricoh GR IIIx

    $1,246.95cited in 5 videosspeaks highly of it

    “It's the Rico GR3X, which is a 40 mil equivalent point and shoot, no zoom. And I love this camera for days like today when the light's out and I'm playing with light and shadow because it's perfect for that.”
  • Insta360 Luna Ultra

    $769.99cited in 2 videospositive about it

    “I also just picked up this Insta 360 Luna Ultra. It's not sponsored at all. They didn't send me one. I bought this with my own money because I wanted a camera that I could take with me when I travel and film a little more loosely and more conveniently.”
  • Sony A7R IV

    cited in 2 videosspeaks highly of it

    “The camera that I'm using is a full-frame Sony A7R4, which is 61 megapixels. It's not the latest version. There's an A7R5 out, but honestly, this camera I really love, and it's been doing a great job for me.”
  • Canon EOS 5D Mark III

    “So, back in the day I used to walk around with big 5D Mark IIs and, you know, big chunky prime lenses.”

Editing and post

Editing software2

  • Adobe Lightroom

    cited in 7 videos

    “I gave myself the challenge of editing them using only Adobe Lightroom, including all the colour grading and light shaping I would usually do in Photoshop.”
  • Adobe Photoshop

    cited in 4 videosspeaks highly of it

    “Normally, when I'm retouching an image, especially if it's a head and shoulders kind of portrait, I would use Photoshop because it's going to give me a lot more control.”

Creator tools2

  • Pinterest

    speaks highly of it

    “I then went on to Pinterest and I created an environmental portraits board and I started to pull on a lot of images that I thought I responded to that I liked in that kind of vein. And I find Pinterest really helpful because I can have the app on my phone”

Platforms

Hosting platforms1

  • Squarespace

    cited in 8 videosspeaks highly of it

    “I've used them myself as my website of choice for over a decade now. One of the things I love about Squarespace are their e-commerce functionalities because I knew starting out as a photographer that I would want to sell my work either in magazines or books or in prints, but I was quite nervous about how that process would work. But with Squarespace, it couldn't have been simpler.”

Ecommerce platforms1

  • Stripe

    positive about it

    “And then once I post everything live, and people start making orders, the money appears in my Stripe account.”

Courses1

  • “A few years ago, I watched an online photography course by magnum photographer Alex called photographic storytelling. And there were loads of great ideas in it and takeaways, but there was one in particular that stood out to me and it was this that the deliberate use of limitation can help create direction for our work.”
