Given the number of years that I have been primarily freelance, I wanted to give an idea of the equipment that one needs to survive in their new realm known as a freelance photographer. Others may have more or less than what I find works best, but I feel this will get you pretty well equipped to be able to fulfill a majority of requests from various types of potential clients you will be trying to work with.

As I’ve mentioned in the past, a blog is not an online journal. You’re not Vincent Laforet, David Hobby or Chase Jarvis. Nikon didn’t send you the D400 in advance to review. Nobody cares if you upgraded the firmware on your D3. Nobody cares that you finally rented a 4×5 and shot on Polaroid Fuji Instant Film. Yes, I watched Lost too. No, I never thought Jin was dead. Instead you should be thinking about how the web can help you extending your marketing reach with a crazy little thing called SEO. So let’s change your mindset.

Andreas Gefeller, who lives in Germany, created the image by painstakingly shooting every square inch of the floor using a Canon EOS 5 with a 35mm lens, which he suspends at a height of about five feet with a boom-like apparatus that extends in front of him. (He fires the shutter by remote control.) He then stitches the scans together in Photoshop.
