button the “it” bag

We’re excited to have a new vendor at Paperie today for a fun guest post / giveaway! Please help us welcome…THEIT Camera Bags!

theit logo

THEIT creates camera bags for photographers that value both style and substance. With designs that aim to capture classic modernity with a sense of playfulness, this philosophy exemplifies the essence of the THEIT customer: someone who is independent, inspired, and full of life, who cannot help but to capture the beauty in her world through the lens.

An homage to the well-known fashion term “the it bag“, the brand represents more than the most coveted piece for the season, but a new wave of design enabling style, function and versatility for the fashion-minded photographer. Inspired by the runway and the streets, THEIT‘s vision is to uphold a fashion standard that helps photographers live their dreams in style.

theit camera bag

And now one lucky Paperie reader has a chance to win The Bossi Bag by THEIT in Gravel (value $159.00)! The bag is water resistant with antique brass hardware, comes with interior and exterior zip pockets for extra room and metal feet for protection, and has a zipper top closure.

•    Fully removeable padded insert; our unique design

button who lives in a pineapple…

I’m very excited to share today’s guest post / vendor giveaway – and to be honest, a little bit jealous that I’m not eligible to win one myself since it’s on my site! This is a product I reviewed for the July 2010 issue of Professional Photographer Magazine, and I got to play with it for a few days.

Let’s just say it’s definitely on my “Ohhhhh, Santa!” list already!


Now thanks to Nathiya at Mr. & Mrs. Pineapple Seed, YOU have the chance to win the quilted bag by *emera.

In 1955, Coco Chanel shook the fashion world with a quilted bag. Now with a bow to Mademoiselle C., *emera offers a perfectly constructed quilted bag for your professional photo equipment. A clever mix of femininity and practicality, it’s designed to protect your DSLR, lenses, and other critical things.

emera front view

emera side view

emera top view

From my Professional Photographer Magazine write-up: “The Quilted tote from *emera has a sophisticated look and can withstand a real photographer’s needs. It features a water-resistant body and padded straps with leather trim, and on the bottom, four metal feet. It has zippered top closure, interior zip-pocket for accessories, and outside side pockets for quick access to small items. The large interior compartment is suitable for an iPad or notebook. Velcro dividers protect your gear. The only thing lacking is a second longer shoulder strap to carry the bag cross-body if needed, but with a bag this size, fully loaded, that could quickly get cumbersome…”

emera lifestyle

“…Holding this bag makes me want to slip into a little black dress, sweep my hair into an up-do, grab black sunglasses, and head to Tiffany’s for breakfast. It’s that beautiful. And functional. Win-win.”

emera Professional Photographer Magazine

So now that you WANT it, how do you WIN it? It’s easy! You have FIVE separate chances!

I’m happy to introduce a guest / vendor post today that I use and love – Jo Totes.

Jo Totes Missy Pink

Jo Totes Missy Pink

I have the Missy – Pink” bag and it’s too adorable for words! As shown above, it’s long / deep enough to hold my camera body, an 80-200mm with lens hood, an extra lens and speedlight – plus personal belongings.

You can also see my review of one of last season’s bags in the July 2010 “Professional Photographer Magagazine“.

Jo Totes are the perfect bags for carrying your camera and an extra
lens or two with your purse items while out and about. They allow you to safely carry your gear on a daily basis, at photo shoots, and while traveling.

Jo Totes plum bronze and blue

The padded interior can be custom fitted not only to protect a camera and lenses, but also to accommodate and organize items like a wallet, music, phone, keys, cosmetics and more. Padding is sewn directly into the interior lining on all four sides and the bottom of the bags. The bottom is also equipped with four metal feet to guard your bag from rough, dirty, or damp surfaces.

Jo Totes Clementine

Inside of each Jo Tote are removable pads which are completely customizable — you can use as many or as few pads as you wish, arranged in the way that best suits your camera, lenses, and other items.

Jo Totes interior

Each bag also includes pockets, strong and comfortable shoulder straps, a top-zippered closure, and a removable cross-body strap.

Jo Totes plum 400

Thought it might be nice to kick off the weekend on a sweet note. Stacey Severt of Wild Hearts Photography is offering up this next guest post and giveaway. Stacey also owns LolliPockits – a store for unique, hand-crafted mini-album / album slipcovers, tote bags, and more.

LolliPockits

I started the LolliPockits online store because I wanted something to put my albums in when giving them to clients. I have a boutique photography business, with mostly child/family clients, and I’m always searching for great products for them. My clients appreciate something very high-quality and unique.

LolliPockits

LolliPockits

The first LolliPockit product was the Mini Album Pockit. I have added the mini albums as client gifts and also for clients to purchase to my product line for 2010. Everyone that sees them just loves them! They love the idea of having a little brag album to carry around with them to show off their favorite images. The problem is that I was afraid that the album covers would get scratched or the pages bent by just throwing them into a purse or bag. And, since these little albums aren’t exactly “cheap”, I came up with the slipcover pouch to hold them. It’s far beyond a paper or plastic wrapping in the fact that it’s very durable and high fashion at the same time. Clients love the extra attention to detail and the fact that I’m willing to go a bit beyond what other photographers offer.

LolliPockits

The next logical product was the Album Pockit. These are custom made to fit any size book-style album. Certain fabrics are available as shown on the site, however, I’m also willing to try to custom match a fabric to your specific album or branding colors. These pockits are fully-lined for a beautifully finished and durable product.

LolliPockits

LolliPockits

LolliPockits

LolliPockits

LolliPockits

I’ve also added some fun and beautiful Pockit Totes and Media Pockits to the mix. The tote bags aren’t really designed for toting camera gear, but really could be used for paperwork or toting all of those samples to client ordering sessions.

LolliPockits

LolliPockits

LolliPockits

The Media Pockits have one product out-a cute slipcover for smart phones. If you have a beautiful tote bag-why not have a matching cover for your phone? These can also be made for eReaders and ipads, as well. Possibly considering custom slipcovers for netbooks and laptops in the future.

Some other products that are in the works include: Custom Canvas Pockits for delivery of canvas prints, camera strap covers, notebook covers and also a line of hand-crocheted baby hats (which are being made by my mother).

I am proud to offer exceptional customer service as well as a high-quality and affordable products. I hope everyone will check out my shop. All feedback is also appreciated!
