Camera recommendations for beginner? My daughter is 16 and wants to get into photography. I’d like to get her a decent camera but honestly am not certain how long this interest will last.

Recommendations for a lightweight telephoto combo? Smartphones have been making huge progress in wide angle, portrait and macro photography. However, their telephoto capabilities are pretty much nonexistent. In this context I am planning to buy a mirrorless camera and use it 99% time with a single telephoto lens. This combo should be as lightweight as possible so that I can comfortably take it o…

I currently possess some traditional strip boxes – but I was thinking about purchasing quick setup ones (if good ones are available) because, frankly, my current ones are okay to set up once in studio, but the whole “put rods in a hole, forcefully bend them like a dictator ruling his subjects, damage your eye in the process” routine is getting a…

Shade recommendations I had this beautiful MAC matte lipstick that I wore daily back in 2016. I stupidly threw the tube away recently without writing the name down so I could find a similar shade. The only thing I remember is that it’s discontinued (I had tried searching for it before I tossed it) and it kind of had a chocolatey smell? Any suggestions of similar avai…

I am looking for another product that applies in a non-clumpy way and gives defined lashes, and can come off with just hot water in the shower. I started using it because I can NEVER get regular mascara off and end up with pa…
