The Virgin Islands // Personal

Hey, guys! Today I’m doing something that I haven’t done in a long time. Most of my blog posts revolve around my photography business, but I wanted to share some photos with you from my recent vacation to St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands!

I only took one camera body and one lens on this vacation because I wanted to pack light and challenge myself creatively. I brought my Canon 5DMkIII and 50mm lens, and it was so refreshing to only have one lens with me at all times! I debated on whether or not to take a zoom lens, but my 50mm was the one that I decided to bring because it was not nearly as heavy as some of my others.

Some of these photos were also taken with my iPhone because I didn’t always feel like carrying around my large camera. Here are some of my favorite photos of the BEAUTIFUL island of St. Thomas!
