In Search for the Perfect Bag

March 3, 2010

After my trip to the Temecula Vineyards I realized my NEED for a camera bag! My camera gets HEAVY! I have had my eye on a few bags for some time now, the Kelly Moore bag & Epiphanie bags – but I am having a hard time deciding!! They are both so cute – I would probably wear either as a purse! Then of course there are the ShootSac bags – which seem a little more standard to me. What are your thoughts? Even if it’s just based off of looks I’d love to hear your opinion!!

aimee - So true! Thanks for the 2 cents Darcy!!

Darcy - I love the look of the Epiphanie bags too. Especially Belle, and then Ginger. I’m just not a red purse/bag person :) It actually has the sizes listed for them too which is great.
The Kelly Moore bag looks great, but it looks like it doesn’t have a zipper at the top to close it. Other than that I would also like to have my camera ready to go. Just my 2 cents.

Andrea - Thanks for the post, these are the exact bags I’ve been comparing! I have a Shootsac, and it is useful for just lenses {like it was made to be}. I will always use it on location when I park and want the freedom to roam. I love the Epiphanie bags! It’s good they can fits a lens+body. I just heard of the Kelly Moore… I would love to hear what you ended up doing. Kind of excited to see what new bags come from Epiphanie :)

k - I absolutely love my Epiphanie bags. (I couldn’t decide on my favorite, so I got all three!) I just love the color choices, and they keep everything in it’s place. Plus I have room for all the extras I carry. I heard that they are coming out with new styles in the summer sometime too…MORE CHOICES!! YAY! :)

Keary Dee - I bought the Kelly Moore bag about a month ago and I LOVE it. I don’t even touch my shootsac anymore. Kelly actually shot my wedding last month and she of course had hers along with her. I think they are AMAZING

kellyhicks - im so glad you posted this! i was just thinking about this and i can’t decide which one to get either! i even asked your sister which one she likes best. i like the lola too but is it too bright to wear at weddings? hard hard decision…

melissa - I reeeeally like the Kelly Moore bag. It appears to be more functional for the desired use, and when it comes to quickly grabbing your camera and “stuff”, in the long run, I think the functionality of the bag would be most important. Good thing it’s adorable!! :) good luck!

Heather - ohhhhhh!! LOLA IS PREEETTTTY!

aimee - Yea! Thank you all SO much for your advice!! VERY helpful – I have lots to think about! Keep it comin!

tiny twig - lola is darling…thinking about getting one myself. my body (camera, that is) is HUGE and heavy!

Alex Evjen - It’s a toss up between the Lola bag by Epiphanie or the Kelly Moore bag as far as style goes. The Lola bay has such a great is a really eye catcher, but the Kelly Moore bag is timeless. So, ultimately, I guess it comes down to which color you like best… Me? I’d pick the Lola bag…

Kathrina - Ready for my own personal opnions? Hope you are :) So I have the Shootsac right now- simple, useful, great! BUT I saw the Kelly Moore bag and the fact that it has PURPLE- I wanted one. Besides that, I liked that you could fit a camera body, which Shootsac you technically can’t. The Epiphanie Lola looks gooooorgeous! Good luck choosing :)

Ashlee - I’ve been looking for a bag too. I was originally thinking about the KellyMoore but after seeing the Epiphanie bags I have no idea. The Lola bag looks a little bigger than KM. I’d probably get one of those two if you’re looking for a camera bag cuz it looked like the Shootsac was just for lenses. I would love to hear your feedback about whatever you choose! :)

melissa - i like the Lola bag. SUPER cute!!! and the red is gorgeous!!!
functional AND stylish. LOVE it!!!

Meg - I love the looks of all the bags, but would definatly use something with a cross strap so you can keep it on while shooting if need be and it wont get in the way. The Shootsac looks super comfortable, I would pick that one… Love the Kelly Moore bag, but looks a bit heavy and bulky.

Kristen - I love the shootsac bags! My favorite part, is the option to buy different covers depending on the look you’re going for, and if you get tired of one, you can buy another and practically have a new bag :)

Jessica Logue - Hi Aimee!!!
Thanks so much for sharing these! I too have been looking for a new bag to fit everything. Right now I have this cute ACME Bowler bag (http://www.amazon.com/Acme-Bowler-Stylish-Camera-Handbag/dp/B0026ZPYVC) which is nice & small enough that it fits into other bags I have. Also in my search I came across Jototes (http://jototes.com/) which I thought were nice too. I Love both the Kelly Moore bag & Epiphanie bags as well! Good luck!

Lindsey Joy - I’m swooning over Epiphanie’s Lola as well!! I already own a shootsac and it’s great… but it is for holding lenses while you’re shooting and not the camera body. The same with Kelly Moore bag, it doesn’t hold a camera+lens combo. You have to take them apart to store them in the bag. Epiphanie, however, holds your camera with a lens attached + other lens/flash/etc. With Epiphanie you’re ready to shoot at a moment’s notice :)

Krissy - I have the shootsac, and I just love it…
I have not purchased the Kelly Moore bag yet, but it is going to be a must in the future!
