Which gear and tools are preferred by Scott Kivowitz for efficient proposal photography?

For efficient proposal photography, Scott leans on gear and tools that keep things fast, discreet, and flexible:

• A main camera with custom user modes (for example, U1 for the proposal moment: flash off, continuous AF; U2 for the engagement portraits: flash on and different exposure settings)
• Fast zoom or prime lenses for low light and quick focusing
• A Spider-style holster or similar system to keep the camera at the hip, hands free
• A jacket with roomy pockets so no backpack is needed and gear stays hidden
• A compact tripod when the spot is fixed and movement is minimal
• Planning tools like Google Maps/Earth to scout angles, light, and hiding spots in advance
