Recommendations

Bloom.io has changed my ability to respond more quickly to project management, invoicing, contracts and lead generation all in one platform that is visually easy to understand. If you are unhappy with your current operations workflow I highly recommend you giving Bloom a try.

I also use Trello to keep lists of to-dos. Simple and visually clear. Easy to organize and share information.

Adobe all the way. If too expensive, call them see if they will work out an affordable rate for tools that are industry standard. I use Photoshop, illustrator, InDesign, Premier, Effects, some AfterEffects and Animate.

I have and do use Canva if needed but Adobe Effects gives me more since I’m already paying for the software and don’t need shortcuts in printing etc.

Procreate. I’m obsessed with this drawing software on the iPad.

When my drawing needs more wet paint look I love using Art Set.

Sony AR7 and Ar7III bodies. Sensors are amazing. LI have not seen one that manages low light as well. I’m a photo editor as well and work on 100s of images a week. I see it all in quality and my Sony bodies are by far better with less Photoshopping needed.

I mainly use prime lens. My favorites are the Sony 25mm and Sony 90mm micro. When shooting sports I generally use Tameron 70-200mm.

Lights, love! portable box cubes.
