As most of us are professional photographers I won’t bore you with the contents of my camera bag, instead I thought I would share some of the gear I use on a day to day basis when photographing corporate headshots. Being Auckland based 90% of my corporate work is based in the CBD. This means traffic, parking issues, long walks, stairs, lifts and small spaces. This all poses logistical challenges, so my kit is assembled with portability in mind without the need to compromise the set up. The other consideration is that a lot of our clients have offices nationwide so being able to replicate shots anywhere is extremely important, so basically *everything you see here (including backdrop) is airline friendly, I can happily travel by myself within airline weight limits. *The ladder stays home Gino Demeer - Cactus Photography
