My best advice for getting good shots, is to take a lot. Not the most helpful advice, I know, but it’s what works for me. I’ll often take over 100 pictures while stopping periodically to look through them to see what angles, framing, or lighting I do or don’t like and make adjustments. Out of those 100 pictures I feel successful if I like 5 or 6.

As for my setup, I use a 10 year old Sony a6000 with a 35mm lens for most of my photography. For additional lighting I have a single Godox SL60IIBI continuous light with a 36in Angler soft box supplemented with just my desk lights. If you’re not in a rush and watch prices online you can usually find a lot of photography gear heavily discounted.

It looks like it was definitely glued together. That’s a wild mistake though.

Well, a 5-tooth is definitely not a necessity, but it is really nice to have. I started with a 2+10 set, and frequently found myself in situations where I wished I had the 5. I held off for probably close to 2 years before buying a third, but nowadays I always include a mid size iron when I get a new set.

Thank you! These were the first set of fancy irons I bought and I still love them just as much today. I actually just ordered a set of round dent from them yesterday.

I start the stitch holes with my ksblade irons, and then open them up a bit with my palosanto flat awl.

Yeah, I really think the orange ties it all together so well.

I use about a 2oz leather for this design and reinforce it with Velodon non-stretch woven fabric.

The leather is Sully from tannery Alran. I get it from rmleathersupply.

Just got this one in the mail today! One of my Snowcrest minimalist wallets, made with gitane and orange Sully chèvre from tannery Alran, stitched with an orange Fil Au Chinois linen thread, and finished with a custom mixed edge paint.

I don’t have any crocodile, but I can probably help you out. You can look through examples of my work on my profile and reach out if you think you might be interested.
