BlackRapid Camera Strap {review + giveaway}


Looking for the perfect gift for the photo-loving person in your life?  I've found it -- BlackRapid's original camera sling!


Perfect for anyone, from professionals to mamas, the BlackRapid R-Strap is true brilliance.  Instead of your traditional neck camera strap, the sling keeps your camera in the perfect position to grab and shoot while it slides along the strap.


Such a simple fix to a pretty annoying camera strap problem, isn't it?  An ergonomic camera strap!  It's super easy to install, and in no time you're easily shooting with a camera sling!


The BlackRapid takes things further too, by offering every single custom tweak to the original R-Strap system, like this double camera strap, distributing the weight of your cameras evenly to lighten the load.  Isn't it cool?  Be sure to check out BlackRapid's facebook and twitter, as they are always offering promos and discounts!

Here's the pretty floral women's R-strap! {and our fluffy cat Tank}  Now, I am nowhere near professional, but we take things off road quite a bit, and I like to shoot our adventures, whether it's moving cows or walking down by the creek.  I actually think the BlackRapid protects my camera more, since it's tucked at my side, and I have room to pick up kiddos without a bulky camera on my chest.

Here's a shot I took this fall while we were exploring a little rocky creek.  I normally am pretty leery of bringing my camera near water, but I locked my camera on the sling and away we went! {today we're getting snow, so these pictures are a nice reminder of the sunshine!}
