Protective Gear
You need to make sure to protect yourself when you head out to get those amazing shots during an all night trek into the wilderness. You can't be creative if you are freezing!
These tents are absolutely amazing! They "pop-up" in less than 5 seconds! and they break down in less than a minute. Perfection!!! They are not light for hiking but they are great to always have in your vehicle.
Waterproof windproof Snow Jacket
You need a jacket that is waterproof, and provides good insulation and is windproof as well! - Can’t beat this price!
These gloves keep your hands warm, but are thin enough so that you can keep them on and still use your camera equipment touch screen (and phone). Make sure to get WINDPROOF and WATER RESISTANT gloves!
Keen makes some great hiking boots. They are rugged and durable. Do NOT go out hiking (carrying your expensive camera gear) in regular tennis shoes. Tennis shoes are not designed to provide support - or warmth - or protection from water. You need to be sure-footed out there - and you want to keep your feet warm.
Outdoor Fleece Lined Windproof Waterproof Hiking Snow Ski Pants
Everyone wears a jacket when they go outside, but when it gets cold and windy - you need to protect your legs. Regular hiking pants or denim provide no protection from a cold winter night - especially when it gets even a little windy.
SOREL BOOTS
If you are going anywhere near snow or ice - or sub-zero temperatures - you need Sorels. You can't focus on being creative if your toes are freezing!
