Last week, I posted the
adventures, and as promised, this week is the second half. Just to recap a bit,
partnered with
to put together this really incredible giveaway AND, I WON!!! Pretty random because I never win ANYTHING, and really, really awesome! I was able to use a month's rental of top of the line equipment. I chose my month so that I could fully take advantage of all this gear. Weddings, families, professional soccer, environmental portraits for a few small businesses, senior sessions, a new project that I have a brewing (more info coming soon), and lots of random photos of my own life.
For those who just want me to stop blabbing and get to the goods, here is a list of the gear that I got to play with for a month:

I can't tell you how much fun I had playing around with all of this gear. It gave me an opportunity and a little push to learn more about lighting, choosing the right gear for the right situation, and really just play around and get to know what each lens can do. Needless to say, I've added a few more things to my ever growing "too expensive for Christmas" list.
Thanks again to both Chase Jarvis and Borrowed Lenses!! I'm forever grateful. :)
