Since becoming a professional photographer, I have been in the market for a stylish, yet very durable and safe camera bag to hold all my gear.
When you invest 1000's into your business... may it be a few lenses, or even just the camera body, you need a great bag to go along with it! Why would you settle for anything less than wonderful :) after all... if the gear cost 1000's the least you can do is pamper it *and yourself* for the price of like 2 good memory cards!
Epiphanie carries a number of wonderful camera bag's for women.
They are beautifully crafted and so amazingly soft. They come extremely well built and padded. They are built to PROTECT your gear, but at the same time look stylish while doing it.
I own the Belle bag & love it! It is large enough to hold almost all of my gear.
I just had a wedding this weekend and took it... the bag held:
My Backup Camera Body (a Canon 30D) - with a 50mm attached.
A 85mm, 17-50mm, speedlite flash, memory cards, extra camera batteries and AA's, a diffuser, my droid cell phone & of course some lip gloss :-)
I could of piled in a little more, had the occasion called for it.
One of my favorite features of the bag however is that you can move the padded inserts around in the bag. I traveled not to long ago and was able to fit my camera body, a spare lens or two, my wallet & also my 10.3 inch NETBOOK computer w/ charger in it! It was the perfect travel bag to hold all of my things w/ safety.
Belle I do believe is the largest of the 4 bags... so if you don't need as MUCH gear you may enjoy one of the other styles. I am very tempted to buy a 2nd bag so I have options ;-)
GET YOUR OWN: With 4 different styles currently, Lola (in red), Belle (in blue), and Ginger (in black/brown), there is a bag here for you! The price may seem high to some, but its totally worth the investment...
WIN YOUR OWN: Malia Wilson the photographer & designer of these fab. bags is allowing me to giveaway one! and get this... WINNERS CHOICE! So if you win you get to pick whichever bag you want. You can't beat that.
TO ENTER: Simply comment letting us know which bag you would want if you won & why :-)

Provided me with the Belle Bag to showcase and review on SIMPLE.
i love the lola, gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteI love the Belle bag!
ReplyDeleteThe Lola in Black is fabulous. And I would want this because I'm constantly putting my camera in my purse, and this way, it would be safe, but in a cute bag that I could put my purse stuff in!

ReplyDeleteDefinitely want Lola in red! My camera bag is just not cutting it. It has a flap over the top, really not convenient when you're trying to make a quick swap.
ReplyDeletethe belle bag in black would be great, I never have anywhere to put my camera
ReplyDeleteI'd choose the black Lola bag. I need this so badly now that I have my first paid clients lined up for a shoot this month!

ReplyDeleteBelle Bag all the way!!! They are all gorgeous, but the Belle totally fits my personality. I currently own a Swiss Gear bag for my rebel and all of her "toys", but it's just not stylish and fun. I'd love to show up at my sessions with a hip, stylish bag. This is an awesome giveaway!!!
ReplyDeleteJust became a fan of Taggies. Such a neat idea.
ReplyDeleteThe Belle bag is my favorite. I love the color and the style of it!

ReplyDeleteI ♥ the Belle bag! My hubby had giving me the go ahead to buy one and then I got laid-off from my job. :( So this is perfect timing! If I win lol Thanks for the chance of winning my dream bag since most camera bags look like "guy bags" I had to pull out the sharpies and decorate my current one. lol
ReplyDeleteI'm a new follower to your blog via GFC.
ReplyDeleteI am torn between the Belle and the Lola (red). I love the bright colors and contrast linings- there's no way my hubby would steal my camera bag!
ReplyDeleteI'd love the Ginger. I'm a neutral girl and I love the shape of this bag.
ReplyDeleteThanks!

ReplyDeleteI love the black Lola. It is so sophisticated. I'd love to have one of these bags to put my new camera in.

I would love the Lola Black. They are very stylish, I'd love a new home for my camera, right now all I have is a bulky (ugly) Sony bag. ;-(
ReplyDeleteThanks!

Love the Lola, I'm always wrapping my camera in a towel and stuffing it into my purse.
ReplyDeleteDecision's, decisions! I like the Ginger and the Lola! I guess I'd pick Ginger if I had to decide!

ReplyDeleteI would love Lola in RED! Reason, because I'm a redhead!
ReplyDeleteLove, Love the Belle bag!
ReplyDeleteI am a follower of Simple and also a fan via facebook. I love all the bags but my choice would have to be to lola in black. The camera bag I have right now is big but does not hold much so a lot of the time I find myself carring two bags. This bag would be SO cute with everything !!!
ReplyDeleteI love them all, but I think the Lola would be my choice. Why? because most camera bags are so ugly! These are HOT!
ReplyDeleteI would love the lola "red!" I usually just throw my camera in my purse when we go out, but this is more stylish than my purse...it's fabulous!!!

I LOVE the Lola bag... but can't decide between the red and the black! I would probably choose the black because I love the pink inside! Thanks!

ReplyDeleteI would want the Belle bag because red does not go good with redheads and I have a lot of black/brown already. Turquoise would surely turn heads if I walked in wearing it.

They're all so adorable, but I love the ginger bag! I've been having the hardest time finding an in between bag that carriers what I need for a photo shoot, without carrying everything I have...let alone one that's so stylish!!!!
ReplyDeleteDrea! I LOVE these bags! The Lola in Red primarily. I've struggled so much finding a camera bag that is comfortable to carry, roomy enough for all my gear AND looks great. I didn't think such a thing existed but wow! I'm drooling over these!
ReplyDeletePS! Fanned Simple and Epiphanie on FB as well.

The Belle bag is fantastic! I love the little studs on the side. And I really love the inside green so it would be easy to find all my camera parts. Plus the outside zipper parts... that is what I am missing right now (plus my bag isn't cute). Love these :)
ReplyDeleteoh the blue. THAT BLUE! it is gorgeous!! i want the belle!
ReplyDeleteI was just thinking that I need a new camera bag!! How perfect! I love the lola in black!!

Belle first caught my eye as I love the green aqua color and most of my bags are basic black. It would be awesome to carry all my purse/kid stuff with my camera. I would love to have my camera with me at all times and not miss any great shots!
ReplyDeleteI'm a NEW fan of Simple on Facebook!
ReplyDeleteI would love the Ginger....it'd be super cute to take to weddings with me, and I'd be able to fit all my equipment plus some extras in it. :)
ReplyDeleteI would definitely get the Belle bag because I LOVE the colour and design :)
ReplyDeleteWhy do I want to win it? Obviously because the bags are both stunning AND practical - not to mention that my current bag (sadly a diaper bag) is falling apart at the seams :(
I *need* a new bag!
I am loving the Lola! Right up my alley and so needed. I have been shoving my new camera in a slightly too small bag for the past month!
