Every year I change my wedding kit. What does it take to properly cover a wedding? You have to be ready for everything. I tend to go with lighter lenses, which allows me to be more mobile. I have 4 cameras in my bag, each with a different lens. Having 4 lenses going at all times, means less need to change lenses. This makes me more efficient! This is a peek at what I use. One nice benefit is I can carry everything in one bag. I really only need my camera bag and the tripod bag for most weddings. Most of the time I am only using one camera. The rest are nearby and ready to go!
