5 Photography Must Haves

My first passion as an artist has been and always will be photography.  It kind of fell in my lap years ago and I realized I'm actually pretty good at it.  As the photography world changes and the ability to do so much with camera phones and DSLR's continues, there are some MUST HAVES for me in the future.  Below are 5 of them that I'm definitely getting and exploring with at some point this year (especially the phoneography ones, because I SUCK at phone photography lol).

  1. Instax mini instant camera: Think #tbt of today.  This is reminiscent of a polaroid camera that gives you an instant picture.  It's smaller and gives smaller prints.  For a gal like me who grew up with polaroids and miss film but not ready to toss my DSLR, this is perfect.  Plus, my son can have a go at it along beside me. WIN!
  2. Glass Diana + Lens: I LOVE the look and feel of film. However, I don't love the feel of how much a film camera will cost me right now, plus I prefer to see what I'm getting right away.  Yeah, the mix of two worlds.  This lens makes that possible for a gal like me.
  3. Pocket reflector: I'm a natural (and available) light photographer.  I love the look and feel that natural light gives and can work with the available light that I'm given. There are times, though that a reflector is necessary but I refuse to carry my pro size around.  This is PERFECT for a daily take around and appeals greatly to my simplistic nature.
  4. Photojojo iPhone AND Android lens series: Since I just migrated to an Android (oh how I miss my iPhone), this lens kit caught my eye.  AND they have 2 new lenses added to the bunch!
  5. Phoneography starter kit: If you're like me and you want to take your phone photos a bit more seriously, this is a great way to start.

Note:  This post focuses on products from Photojojo.  I am not being paid from this post, it's just a store I like for photog stuff.
