Hi there!

For my minimalist portrait kit, I focus on what’s light, fast, and dependable, especially for sessions like one‑year‑old portraits:

  1. Camera body you know well (any modern mirrorless/DSLR is fine)
  2. One main lens: typically a fast prime in the 35–85mm range
  3. A single flash or small strobe
  4. One modifier: small softbox or umbrella
  5. Light stand and basic trigger
  6. Extra batteries, cards, and a simple reflector

If you tell me what gear you already own, I can map this “definitive” minimalist kit directly to your setup.
