Simplicity and the Stock Shooter
Achieving maximum results, even on a cloudy day.
Not every day is a sunny day. Regardless of whether you’re a full-time shooter, or you shoot just on the occasional weekend, weather is always a factor for the location photographer. I thought I would share some of the techniques I use to maximize any opportunity. The great part about shooting stock is that you have the flexibility to go in different directions to deliver a marketable image.
Gear up with simplicity
Before we talk about the weather, let’s jump into the gear. First of all, I always keep my camera bag really simple for most outside location shoots. Click here to read the rest of the article, and for a look inside my camera bag.

Very interesting!! Wonderful joyous portraits.
If it’s raining how do you waterproof your gear Ron?
Hi Sue,
I have a waterproof backpack that we’ll use for shoots where rain is likely, or I’ll just grab a large umbrella to shoot under. The Canon’s are water-resistant and both lenses mentioned (24-105 and 28-300) are also water-reseistant.
