12 Jul What's in Her Bag: Lisa Dowty, of Lisa Turner Photography
Tell us a little about what’s inside.
I love this bag because it comes with a bazillion inserts and lots of Velcro so I can continually customize it how I need. It has an interior side pocket that can hold my 17in laptop – which is hard to find in a camera bag these days! I don’t always carry my laptop with me, but it’s nice to have. The outside also has tons of pockets for things I need to reach easily, and things I tend to lose during a session (lens caps, keys!).
Most used item in your bag?
Most used item in my bag would be my Canon 2.8L 24-70 lens. It is the original gangster and has seen some miles (hoping to buy the newer version this year!) but it is my go-to almost every single session. I love getting close up with clients and also being able to capture a scene at wide angle, documentary style.
Least used item in your bag?
Least used item would be the Canon 4.0L 70-200 lens. If I have a reluctant toddler, it does come in handy, but wide angle is more my jam. I do use it often for my daughters’ activities – sports and dance. But other than that it rarely comes out of my bag.
