Tech Talk: Camera Gear I Use
As my blog continues to grow I get more and more questions about how I started my blog, how I edit my photos, and the most common question as of lately, “what kind of camera gear do you use?” I’m not an expert in this area but Brandon definitely is. Although he is not a professionally trained photographer, and prefers to take photos of cars and houses, he does an amazing job. “You’re SOOO lucky to have Brandon” is something I hear almost daily and I am the first to admit Teach Me Style would not be what it is if it weren’t for him. In fact, TMS would not be a thing if it weren’t for him. He is the one that pushed me to start it and is constantly pushing me to be better. HE IS AWESOME!
Anyways, sorry I got off on a bit of a tangent there! Today, for the first time EVER Brandon has agreed to be in front of the camera!!!!! This is a big deal.. he does not enjoy this, like at all. He is answering ALL your questions about what kind of camera he uses when taking my photos. Stay tuned for video gear and info coming soon!
So as a thank you to him, you should probably subscribe to my Youtube channel (you can do that here) and like this video. MMMMk thanks!

Thanks, my girl!!! I know, I’m SO proud of Brandon… he’s a natural! He is going to kill our next collaboration, I can’t wait 😉

Brandon designed my website and I can’t say enough good things about him! Holly I’ve been following you for a while and I had no idea until recently that you guys are together – such a small world! Holly your blog is great – I usually take away a useful tip or two, and always look forward to your next post. Well done both of you!
Holly
Awe! That’s so awesome- yes,he is very good at what he does! I’m happy you’ve had the chance to work with him!! And yes, such a small world!
Ardelle
Thank you so much for the info! This was great. Could you do a video on what editing programs you use for your videos and photos? And Brandon, it was as if you had done this a billion times before. Awesome job! Could you confirm what lens you suggest for food photography?
Holly
Hi Ardelle! Thanks so much, I passed on the complement to Brandon and he says “thanks!” The lens he mentioned for food photography is the 50mm 1.8. However, if distance is an issue and you want to capture your dish from top down on a table with accessories, you may want to look at the 24mm here: http://amzn.to/2ldgX9f

Holly

Oh this is so sweet, Holly! Nice to see Brandon in front of the camera. You two have been doing such an awesome job together. Thanks to Brandon for sharing his tips and tricks. My 50mm does all the heavy lifting for my photos and video but I’ve been window shopping around for a new lens to add to my arsenal. Thanks for focusing my search a bit, haha! Keep up the great work, you guys <3
P.S. Love those glasses on you, Hols!
