Looking for a cute girly camera bag? Photographers, this post is just for you. If you are anything like me, you carry your camera everywhere (in addition to diapers).
Me and the camera are like siamese twins. Except, I have an awful habit. No matter how much I try to take care of it and try to keep it in it’s bag, it just doesn’t work.
In the past, I have used the Kata sling. It’s functional while shooting, but I shoot life, I’m by no means a professional photographer.
Sick of my camera not being well taken care of (I shoot with a Canon 60D) – keeping it in a protective bag keeps it in good shape, plus I always know where it is. There is no longer a need for us to carry around ugly bulky black camera bags when there are so many stinkin’ darling camera bags FOR GIRLS! (or women, whateva). No more MAN camera bag! Here are a few of the darlings that I came across while on my search:
Girly Camera Bags
Alright girl photographers, no more plain black camera bags, these bags were made just for you.
Stella Epiphanie Bag
This darling girly camera bag from Epiphanie – her name is Stella and isn’t she cute!!
The Epiphanie Stella shoulder bag contains a ton of space! You can hold a DSLR, 3 lenses, flash, battery pack and accessories. There are 5 outside zipper pockets for personal use. The Stella bag is water-resistant made from synthetic leather and accented with a gray lining. There is extra padding, so don’t worry – your gear will totally be protected.
What I love most (as a message bag lover) – you can wear your Stella camera bag over your should or cross-body messenger style.
This gray color will be sure to compliment anything you wear.
(p.s. I don’t know if Ephiphanie bags can do wrong when it comes to style!)
Kelly Moore Libby Bag
Meet Libby, she’s a beautiful bag from Kelly Moore. You can wear her over the shoulder, or as a messenger bag. She is water resistant so any photography jobs outside, don’t fret! If you are hauling lots of equipment, take note – she the Libby Kelly Moore bag will hold up to 10 lens, a pro body or standard body with grip and a camera body with lens attached. In other words, this camera bag has room!

I love these camera bags. In fact, I bought 2 different sizes (small and medium). They’re fashionable, durable and useful and don’t look like the old box style camera bags. There is plenty of padding to protect your camera and gear. The padding is also moveable so you can customize the bag to suit your needs. I can fit my camera (lens attached) and 2-3 additional lenses in this small bag along with additional camera accessories such as extra batteries, lens cleaner, lens caps and filters. There’s also a variety of pockets for stuff like cell phone, business cards, car keys, wallet and sunglasses. It even comes with an additional removable small pouch. I couldn’t be happier with a camera bag!

I just found this great hand bag that is made here in Oregon. It is made out of men's sports jackets! Here are a few photos and the designer's email address is there too. It has taken me forever to find the purse for my camera, wallet, odds and ends, and a large lense! http://jasminephotoblog.wordpress.com/2011/04/26/camera-purse/

Great tip from photocraziness...I just got the Portare orange/grey bag from amazon and I love it. It is definitely a bag that girls can use and it fits my laptop, baby's wipes, wallet, camera and 4 lenses. I simply love it.

I've tried many different bags, but I can't get all my stuff in a purse like that. So after researching a lot, I have found an awesome camera backpack that is not a guy bag. It is perfect for women and comes in two different colors including a beautiful blue and gray which is the one I got. Best of all: I only paid $100,00 and it fits my laptop, my camera gear, diapers and wipes (for moms), wallet, keys and more into it. Its great! . Check the website out: http://www.portarebags.com
