Essential Gear Every Photographer Needs | What's in my camera bag 2025

I’ve been traveling the world and shooting in London, and my everyday photography backpack keeps me ready for any shoot. In this video, I’m showing you exactly what’s in my camera bag, from my Canon R6 with RF 28–70mm f/2 lens to essential gear like memory cards, spare batteries, cables, and filters.

I also carry practical items for long shooting days: a protein bar, water bottle, phone tripod, and cleaning kit, plus small tools like gaff tape, plastic bags, and a reflector. For special projects, I sometimes add lights, extra lenses, or my DJI Osmo Pocket, but this setup is my everyday kit for travel, street photography, and creative shoots.

If you’re a photographer, filmmaker, or content creator, this video gives real-life tips on how to pack a camera bag efficiently, choose the right gear, and stay mobile while shooting.
