By David Griffin





As a professional photographer (if you stay long enough) you find yourself one day having amassed hundreds of lbs of gear over time. Then you find yourself dreading going out and doing the thing you love to do the most! You realize that it’s not creating the image that’s gotten too you, but, it’s the things you do that lead up to that one click that’s beaten you up! You haul tons of gear around (for those of us who are not “hog-tied” to a studio). You start saying the ultimate No-No “…Just how much can I leave and still get my shots?…” You begin to compromise, and limit your lighting options!

The years have not been kind to photographers who have had to carry such gear alone. The weight goes up and up… This photographer’s longevity and inspiration goes down and down with each session!
