Custom Camera Bag and Straps

I am all about making things easier and of course more fashionable in my daily life.

I must say, I am pretty proud of myself! I managed to make myself a Lens Bag from scratch. There are a few out there on the market but I figured I'd give it a try since I wanted it made out of specific materials. Now, I still have my Jill-e Bag for storage and to carry my main camera gear in. This bag is meant to carry my lenses while I'm on a photoshoot. It's light and fits snug around my body, but strong enough to carry my lenses, flash and accessories wherever I need to go!

So, What did I make it out of?

Faux chocolate leather exterior, soft minky black interior pockets custom made to fit each of my lenses, batteries and so on. It’s deep enough that if I have to, I can also fit my camera body in there as well as a wallet and other things. And it’s padded to ensure my equipment stays safe! I’ve also stitched the straps on with extra safety in mind ~ It’s certainly not coming off any time soon! I added a D-ring to attach my lens cloth to the front where it will be in easy reach. My favorite part? The front fashion flap is detachable so I can swap the flaps out when I get bored or feel it’s time for a change ~ Voila a whole new bag look!
*grins with self gratification*

Sorry to my fellow Photog’s. These are not for sale ;)









Now, on the other hand, if you are in the market for some fashionable
SLR Camera Straps, I make those too, and they are for sale over in my store Zoe's Collection! I currently have over 70 designs, and I add new ones all the time! Just another addiction, or... I mean, job of mine :) just click the images below
