THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED!
Photography is a new passion of mine. I have so much to learn about the art, but as time passes, I find myself growing increasingly fascinated with staging and photographing my crafts more than creating the craft itself. Don't get me wrong, I would not pick one over the other as they both bring me a different kind of happiness.
About three months ago, hubby surprised me with a new DSLR camera for my birthday. I was immediately in love with it but became a little obsessed with its handle and care (still am?), as in, I treat this thing like I did my firstborn.
I wanted to take it everywhere but I was afraid of it being damaged as I did not have a camera bag. Hubby offered to buy me a 'regular' camera bag, but truthfully, they are not the prettiest to look at and kind of bulky to carry....
Enter one of the most beautiful camera bags...
The Rose by Jo Totes.
It's no wonder their bags are called "Camera bags for ladies".
I am in love with this bag and would like to take a moment to tell you why...
Not only is it beautiful to look at, but well designed for its purpose. It's roomy enough to not only carry your camera and lenses but other items too. It saves having to carry both a camera bag and a purse and the entire bag is padded with foam that is sewn into the lining on all four sides and the bottom, eliminating my fear of my camera being damaged. It also comes with magnetic closures for quick and easy access.
It includes 4 adjustable Velcro pads that can be adjusted to fit your particular camera needs. You can place them as you wish to accommodate your lenses, camera(s) or any other delicate piece of hardware.
This is a great feature for someone who has additional camera 'toys' as you can take them out when not in use and put them back in as needed. I look forward to the day I'll have new zoom lenses (hint, hint baby)?
I have even taken this bag out without my camera, because it's just so pretty.
The bag also comes with a detachable adjustable cross body strap, which is another plus when you are a mom and need free hands to hold little hands when you're out and about...
Don't you just love that beautiful vintage rose and front pleated panel?
Although there is a small zippered pocket on the back that you can use for papers and such, if I had one suggestion for the folks at Jo Totes, it would be to perhaps incorporate a pocket behind the pleated panel. That said, this is a minor suggestion as the functionality of the bag is wonderful.
Here is an untouched picture so you can get a better look at the true color of this bag. I love the teal and had to have it but there are some other delicious colors to choose from...
They are also so beautiful....
There are obviously many other styles to choose
from and it was a very difficult decision to pick one.
I debated between my beautiful Rose and
