I’ve been blogging for just under 5 years, and vlogging on YouTube for almost 4 years, so I thought it was about time I showed you my vlogging and blogging equipment. I often get asked questions about my cameras, photography tips, what I use to film my videos, what lighting I have, how I edit my photos and videos, so what better way to answer these questions than to put all answers in one place!
On the video below I talk about every single piece of equipment that I used (or have ever used) on my blog and YouTube channel. I’m quite a techy-girl and I love spending time (and money!) on cameras, computers and similar techy-stuff, so over the years I have acquired a fair amount of gear, which I now use to create my blog photos and YouTube videos.
[youtube=https://youtu.be/C5PWx9tusE0&w=1080] I’m very happy with my current equipment and everything seems to be up to my annoyingly high standards. Mind you, when you add it all up, this obsession of mine doesn’t come cheap, but to me it’s a hybrid between work and passion, so that’s my excuse.
If you’re just starting with blogging and making YouTube videos, you definitely do not need all this equipment. This is the product of 5 years worth of buying, selling, upgrading and investing in camera equipment! But if you’re looking to improve the quality of your photos or videos, or just want to get some ideas of the kind of things you could have, then this video will be right up your street.
Giveaway

Comment on THIS POST, telling me: if money was no object, what technology item would you buy? I’m already looking forward to reading your answers!
