It has been so hard sitting on my hands waiting for the new July 2010 issue of Professional Photographer Magazine to be released!

This month you’ll find me in good company over in “The Goods” section (pages 60-63) and the topic is one that made me swoon – camera bags. I got to hug, squeeze and call every single one of ‘em “George“. It was amazing. And so are the bags! So keep your eyes peeled for the snail-mail copy, and download the digital edition now if you’re a PPA member.

Big thanks to Epiphanie, *emera, Kelly Moore, Jo Totes, and Photojojo for allowing me to review your bags!

But wait, there’s Moore!

Joshua Smith of Loktah was awesome enough to share this video he shot of the new Kelly Moore bag promo. You know you want to win one now!

So what are you waiting for? Hurry up and go enter! (Thanks for sharing Joshua!)

P.S. New Moo.com customers can get 10% off with the code AS3JC3 through June 30th!

tell me Moore, tell me Moore!

Today’s guest post / giveaway is what those of us in the industry refer to as “hitting the jackpot”. Not only is there a Kelly Moore bag up for grabs (yep, you heard that right) – but the lucky winner also gets their choice of a custom Abie Camera Strap (and they haven’t even hit the market yet)!

Kelly Moore bags sell out almost the instant new stock is replenished and it’s no big secret why. They’re a roomy, stylish, and fashionable way to protect your gear. And with the release of Kelly’s new hobo, there are more choices than ever before.

But wait. There’s more! In addition to their choice of camera bag, the winner will also get their choice of custom Abie Camera Strap.

Professional Photographer Magazine recently featured Abie Camera Straps in a web exclusive. Available soon, they will retail for $145.00-175.00.

You can see one on my Nikon above – they are absolutely beautiful, and I love the suede backing. You can even request a custom design for an additional fee that features your own logo.

To win, go to your Facebook and Twitter accounts and post the following:

I need a camera bag from kellymoorebag.com / @kellymooreclark and Abie Camera Strap from @EllenLeRoy at paperieboutique.com by @shutterblog
