I’m a freelance social media marketer/ videographer. I’ve been working professionally for a year and wanted to share a range of products I’ve used along the way. I know how difficult it is to get started so if you look at this list and think “I can’t...

My go to girlie, bought her in June last year and I’m obsessed. Definitley worth the steep price tag if you’re serious about creating high quality content!
Canon EOS R6 Mark II Camera
The very first camera I bought, absolutely loved her but didn’t have enough range for what I needed. Perfect for B roll and the stabilisation is amazing👏🏻
Osmo Pocket 3 - For Moving Moments
Love these. Allows me to effortlessly get first person content without encroaching on clients while they do their thing. Would highly recommend‼️
Ray-Ban | Meta AI glasses Gen 2 & Gen 1
This phone allows me to do whatever I need to do whilst on the move. Whether it be edit videos, graphic design or a last minute client shoot- it’s more than capable🍊
iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max
An impulse buy- but I love her. It’s really a tiny powerhouse. I can throw it in my bag and take it virtually anywhere so I’m never caught short, the built in flash is adds the perfect lighting and adds a moodiness to my product shots. I will say I u...
Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III - Cameras
One of my first cameras. I have a client who runs a swim school so this comes in handy to get action shots of people in the water- adds a whole other depth to my storytelling 🤌🏻
GoPro HERO5 Action Camera - Black, 4K
Accessories🌟
I use this with my R6. Allows me to grip the camera and hold it steadier for slicker, smoother shots. Can also add a side handle or a top handle which I love along with a monitor/ microphone🙏
SmallRig R5/R6/R5 C Cage Kit w/ Handle
I bought this diva so I could interview clients and not have to worry about the audio quality. I usually layer the audio from an interview over some b-roll shots and I’ve never had an issue. Clear crisp sound every time🤞
DJI Mic 2 Transmitter Wireless Microphone
I work in a tech shop and I got this on clearance. I use it on my phone to get b roll, really helps to get smooth shots as I have very shaky hands. Definitley something I should utilise more🫣
DJI Osmo Mobile 6 3-Axis Smartphone Gimbal
This monitor has made it so much easier to colour grade in post production. It gives a more accurate representation of what my videos actually look like and takes a lot of guess work out of the equation💯
FEELWORLD FW568 6" DSLR Camera Field Monitor
I’ve only recently started playing around with flash so I didnt want to invest in a very expensive one incase I didn’t like it. This is the perfect compromise- high quality but beginner friendly👌🏻
Neewer TT560 Flash Speedlite for DSLR Cameras
I’ve had these for a few years and they have never failed me. Bought them for a uni assignment where I had to create an advertisement for a drink brand. They were the perfect addition to make my shoot look more professional on a budget🤠
Neewer 700W 24x24 Softbox with E27 Socket
I’ve always struggled with colour grading as a colour blind person, but adding these nd filters to my osmo pocket 3 made the experience easier for me. They essentially make the colours more balanced when you’re shooting so you don’t have to tweak as ...
K&F CONCEPT Magnetic Variable ND2-32 Filter for DJI Osmo Pocket 3
My go to for carting everything around. Nice and secure and has lots compartments for all my equipment. The bag zips and clasps shut so I’m never scared of it accidentally opening and it is well padded so all my equipment is safely stored🛄
Camera Bags | DSLR & Mirrorless Bags
Boring but a must. I will never forget the time I arrived at a shoot and my lens immediately fogged up. I panicked and all I had at my disposal was toilet roll to try and clear it off🤦♀️Needless to say the shots weren’t great. Always best to keep o...
Lens Cloths & Cleaning Kits | Lenspen & More
I use the 256GB of this and I have a few of them. Fast read write speed which is a must when uploading footage for editing🦄
SanDisk Ultra Plus 64GB SD Memory Card UHS-I
Lenses
I originally bought a lens that was cropping the sensors of my R6🫣 But once I switched it out for this prime lens I fell in love. Perfect for most of my shoots and adds the most gorgeous bokeh effect for my b- roll shots. 10/10🕺🏻
Canon RF 50mm F1.8 STM - RF Lenses
Editing💥
I use Canva when I need to quickly whip something up. It’s very user friendly but is limited in its capabilities. A favourite for sure though🧚🏻♀️
Canva
I fear I will have to update this soon as it’s only giving me options for refurbished models😅I joke. I bought this laptop in 2023 as I was entering my final year of uni. She’s a workhorse and even with only 16GB RAM has never struggled with any task...
Refurbished MacBook Air M2 13-inch and 15-inch
I love Adobe. As someone who has ran adobe on an i7 windows laptop and a macbook m2- it runs much smoother on Apple. The integration is next to none and the amount you get in the actual subscription for just £20 a month is well worth it to me. I only...
