I use my Canon 750D DSLR Camera for My Images and YouTube Videos – they are so easy to film, since the camera has a flip screen. The wi-fi function and the touch screen make it so easy to use!
I use this Lens (50mm 1.8) to create the Bokeh effect in my Images, as well as in my Videos. I seriously could not ask for a Better Canon Lens for this.
The 18-135 mm Lens is the Lens that helps me get the wide Angles I need, either when Taking Photographs, either when Filming for my YouTube Channel. A High-Quality Lens that everyone should have in their Photography Tools Collection.

When everyone was buying Macbooks and using fancy editing softwares to edit their videos, I did not have enough to invest – and I went for a Windows Laptop instead of a Macbook, so I decided to try Wondershare Filmora. After using it for a while and realizing how simple it is, I decided to Purchase the full – Lifetime Version. I am seriously so happy – it is just what I need for my Videos – with no extra, huge costs.
When Starting my YouTube Channel, I had no idea what Tags were, what I needed to include in my Title or Descriptions. This is where I saw an ad for VidIQ and decided to Install the extension. It was the best decision I made for my Videos – it helps me do all the settings for my video before posting – so I can be sure it will perform right. Also, it helps you search potential subjects for videos before even recording it!
If you are a Video Content Creator – or use a Camera – you will need an SD Card with loads of memory. I have been purchasing Kingston SD Cards since the Beginning and they have never disappointed me.
A Camera Tripod is essential if you are filming Videos by Yourself. No need for it to be an expensive one – just sturdy enough to use it for a long time.
Ohh yes. The camera remote everyone needs if they film videos by themselves. Seriously, it is a life saver. I can start the Video from afar, and even take Images. I cannot recommend it enough.
HP ENVY Laptop. It helps me do anything I need – from editing my Videos, Photos – and managing my Businesses all in one place. Lots of Memory Space – it is a Laptop I would buy over and over again.
I would normally not include a mouse in here, but this one has been the best one I have tried, and I have tried loads. The hand grip is so comfortable and the lifespan of the batteries seem to last forever. So great!
Canva is the Best Online Editing Platform – you can Design Resumes, Social Media Content, PDF’s, Logos and so much more. It is so easy to use – and it is FREE.
