When I go on location I prep my gear kit based upon the needs of the shoot. That being said, there are a few key items that accompany me on ANY location shoot. These are the most versatile tools that are lightweight and give me the flexibility to create.

Below is a list of the essential gear and WHY I have chosen these tools as my musthaves.

Canon R5 https://adorama.rfvk.net/JxzdE'>https://adorama.rfvk.net/JxzdE
This mirrorless camera features exposure simulation that allows me to preview changes in exposure in realtime (saving me time and effort). Its face and eyetracking capabilities allow me to shoot at very wide apertures to simplify the background.

Canon RF 50mm 1.2 https://adorama.rfvk.net/g2gJg'>https://adorama.rfvk.net/g2gJg
If I can only take one lens with me, this is the one! A 50mm can allow me to capture wide shots, midlength images, and even relatively closer shots (torso) without distortion.

Canon RF 2470mm 2.8 https://adorama.rfvk.net/jWOVxb'>https://adorama.rfvk.net/jWOVxb
If I need a lens that gives me flexibility quickly and I don’t need to shoot at extremely wide apertures, this is my choice. At 2.8 I can still simplify the background and create very wide shots to headshots in an instant.

Canon RF 85mm 1.2 https://adorama.rfvk.net/Rk5Qy'>https://adorama.rfvk.net/Rk5Qy
This is the 3rd lens I’ll consider if I need to shoot a lot of tight shots with a super narrow depth of field. This is great for portraiture or closeup beauty imagery.

Profoto B10 Plus https://adorama.rfvk.net/62K03'>https://adorama.rfvk.net/62K03
This strobe is portable, batteryoperated, and packs 500 Watts. Perhaps to help me overpower daylight without having to carry something more substantial.

Profoto TTLC Remote https://adorama.rfvk.net/W3o5G'>https://adorama.rfvk.net/W3o5G
When shooting in the middle of the day I need to be able to shoot in high speed sync mode, and this trigger provides that capability. I can shoot faster than my camera’s sync seed which allows me to ‘overpower’ ambient and shoot a wide aperture.

Westcott Rapidbox Switch Oct M https://adorama.rfvk.net/0JD3JR'>https://adorama.rfvk.net/0JD3JR
This modifier provides soft light and opens up like an umbrella. It is super simple, portable, and affordable.

Profoto Medium Reflector https://adorama.rfvk.net/vvPBL'>https://adorama.rfvk.net/vvPBL
A silver and white reflector is a musthave for any (and every) location shoot. Bounce a bit of light back into the eyes or add a highlight to draw attention— it’s compact, light, and a musthave for refining natural light.

PhotoFlex ExtraLong Litereach Plus https://adorama.rfvk.net/XYNVVo'>https://adorama.rfvk.net/XYNVVo
Rather than using a light stand, this light pole is fantastic for shooting on location. It has extra reach to allow me to elevate the light to very high positions, great for when the subject is elevated somewhere at a higher angle.
