Ever gone shopping and forgotten your wallet? Or been to a meeting and forgot your pen? A photographer's equipment is their life, and one of the worst things they can do when out shooting is forget to take certain lenses, filters, a battery! Which got me thinking about making a checklist for photographers for the big day, and I have decided to share it with you all :)
A lot of these will seem very obvious, but it's amazing what might slip your mind! (I once went to a local gig with my friends, only to realise I left my battery on charge)
My current standard kit
+ Camera
+ Spare/Extra Camera
+ Spare batteries - charged
+ Lenses - make sure you have all the ones you need!
+ Filters - ND & Polarising are handy
+ Speedlight & tripod
+ Decent camera bag
+ Any lanyards/belts/hangers to carry your equipments (Jessops have a great belt attachment thing)
+ Spare SD cards - formatted
+ Microfibre cloth to wipe lenses
+ Itinerary of the day
+ Shot List
+ Directions to ceremony and to reception (SatNav)
That's everything that immediately comes to mind!
Let me know in the comments if you think of anything that I can add :)
