i was simply giddy when shutterbag sent me a beautiful camera bag for me to write a review on!  there is a new love in my life and her name is jetsetter by shutterbag!  i pretty much sat on the curb, waiting for the mailman to bring me this new beauty and, not to be silly or anything, but i literally gasped when i finally opened up the box.  yes, gasped.  the first thing i noticed was the gorgeous emerald green color.  the color is stunning and it had me simply giddy as i unwrapped the tissue paper and pulled it out of the box.  i could hardly wait to move my camera gear into it and show it off!  there is a whole list of things that i adore about my new jetsetter shutterbag, but let me tell you about the top 5 things!

5 Things I Adore About The Jetsetter Shutterbag

1.  large exterior pockets   i am a lover of pockets and when i saw the pockets on the jetsetter, i was one happy photographer.  exterior pockets are very important to me because i need quick and easy places to access photographer items during my sessions, like my lens pen, extra batteries, and memory cards.  i also like to keep things like my car keys and cell phone on the outside of my bag, away from my camera gear.  i love the deep pockets on the front of the jetsetter!  they are perfect for my phone and keys, making them easy to find and also away from my camera gear, as i like to keep my gear completely separate from other items that could potentially scratch or damage it.  with a total of five pockets on the outside of this bag, it makes it easy to keep my camera gear separate from my everyday items.

2.  the lens cap pouch  what a genius idea!  i cannot tell you how many times i have either misplaced my lens cap or have put it in my back pocket, only to scream “ouch!” when i sit down on it.  those days are over!  i love that there is a specific place in the jetsetter shutterbag just for my lens cap.

3.  the cross body strap  although not pictured in this post, the jetsetter does come with a cross body strap.  to be completely honest, the longer strap is a deal breaker for me.  i have to have it.  when i am at a session, i love that i can put my camera bag across my shoulder with the cross body strap and the bag stays hands free, allowing me to focus on my camera.  it also allows me to move around quickly, without having to worry about setting down and picking up my bag.  not to mention, once i have put a lot of camera gear in my bag, the cross body strap is a more comfortable way to carry my bag.

4.  it’s real leather!   and let me just say, you can tell!  this bag is so soft, making it really comfortable to carry.  not only is the jetsetter made of real leather, but the design is very well thought out.  from the pretty buckles on the front pockets to the stylish strap, this bag is going to keep me looking professional at my photo sessions.  and i love that it doesn’t look like a camera bag, but instead a gorgeous purse.  it’s my new bag for the everyday.

5.  the perfect size  okay, let’s take take a peek inside the jetsetter shutterbag!  first of all, for any of you that truly know me, you know that i am addicted to stripes.  so you can imagine how thrilled the inside of this camera bag makes me.  the interior striped pattern is darling!  but, back to the inside of the bag…it is enormous!  seriously, this bag has so much space inside that will be so useful when i want to carry my nikon d610 and my backup nikon d600 at the same time.  as i moved my gear into it, i was amazed at how many things fit perfectly inside!  i am beyond impressed by the size of this jetsetter shutterbag!

to give you an idea of what gear i can fit in this bag, all at once, here is a little list!  i was able to put my nikon d600 with my battery grip attached, my nikon d610, my sigma 50mm f/1.4 lens, my lensbaby composer pro sweet 35 lens, my nikon 24-85mm f3.5-4.5 lens, and my nikon 70-300mm f4.5-5.6 lens.  yes, that’s right!  i fit 2 dslr’s, 4 lenses and a battery grip in this bag, all at once!  {that’s even more than the gear in the picture up there, because i was using one of my cameras and lenses to take this photo!}  can you tell why the shutterbag jetsetter is the new love of my life?

i could go on and on about why i love this bag!  from the organized pockets, to the stylish design, to that awesome lens cap pouch, i am one very happy photographer!  i cannot wait to show off my new camera bag at my sessions this spring!
