My photography gear with Emma Wood
I don’t have an enormous amount of gear, but I do use and utilize everything that I have. My office space is pretty basic, and since we’re renting at the moment, it’s not easy to make a space your own. But I have all that I need and it’s my own little corner of the house.
My gear:
1. Nikon D700 with my 50mm 1.4D attached: (Instagram picture, since I don’t have a back up camera) I’m unlucky with 50mm’s, although I do love the focal length. This one is having focus problems so I don’t use it much.
2. Nikon Macro 105mm 2.8G: I call this my ‘therapy lens’ since I find macro so calming and it’s something I usually shoot when I’m alone.
3. Nikon 85mm 1.4D: My favorite lens of all. I use this most of the time because it’s my most reliable lens, very sharp and produces fantastic bokeh.
4. Nikon 20mm 2.8D: This was inherited from the lovely Sarah Wilkerson so I think it might have a bit of magic in it.
5. Lensbaby Composer Pro with Sweet 35 optic: I use this when I want something a little bit different or dreamier. I also have the double glass optic.
My office:
6. Ketti bag CM’s special edition: I LOVE this bag more than any other! It’s lightweight, comfortable and so cute. I get so many compliments on it and it’s put my Epiphanie Ginger out of action.
7. My lovely iMac. I literally kissed this when I unpacked it after it’s journey from Oz earlier this year. I love editing on such a big screen, it’s like processing at the cinema.
8. Erin Condren Planner. What every girl needs to keep her organized and I love how you can customize your own cover.
9. My very much needed lamp. It’s permanently on because it’s often very dark here in the winter months in England.
10. Top drawer full of camera accessories, self timer, lens cleaners, battery charger, rolls of film and a Mamiya 645 that I’ve yet to put to use.
11. Latte from my spectacular Nespresso machine.
Five Random things about me:
1. I’m extremely scatty. My Grandmother always used to tell me “you’d loose your head if it wasn’t screwed on” and I think she was right.
2. Some things make me shiver, such as kiwi fruit and wooden ice-lolly sticks.
3. I was an Army brat and attended 27 different schools as a child. I don’t think I was ever in one place for more then 2 years at a time and I’ve lived in Germany, Canada, Cyprus, America, Australia and England. I’m about to add another Country to that list as we plan to move to the UAE next year.
4. I have a few obsessions including laundry detergent, shampoo, scarves and tea (earl grey preferably).
5. My kids all think I’m a wind-up merchant. I’m quite good at keeping a serious face while playing a practical joke but they’re all pretty wise to me now, dang it!
I’m so glad we get to take a peek into your world. 🙂 I love the artwork on your wall! 🙂 Oh, wooden popsicle sticks makes me shutter too.
