5 Super Stylish Bags for Camera-Toting Moms

My one-year-old son recently had his first haircut. In addition to bringing my iPhone for capturing Instagram-worthy photos and snippets of video, I also

brought my spiffy DSLR camera to document the milestone event. I’m sure all parents bring a camera to their child’s first haircut, but there was something awkward about carrying my bulky camera case into the minimalist hair salon—especially because I’m in no way a professional photographer!

 

As soon as I had a free moment, I went online to look for a chic alternative to my big, black Case Logic bag. Surprisingly, I found many fashionable options. Here are my favorites:

 

 

The Georgia in Nautical from Jo Totes is a classic satchel in faux leather accented with preppy stripes. This casual bag features interior and exterior pockets plus three adjustable pads to create compartments for your equipment.

 

 

 

The Melrose is a mini backpack that will be available this fall from Lo & Sons. This luxe bag is made from soft nappa leather and quilted nylon and also has removable interior padding.

 

 

 

Theit's Bossi Bag in Gravel impresses with a Chanel-inspired quilted exterior that's water resistant and accented with antique brass hardware. Remove the padded insert to turn the camera bag into a purse.

 

 

 

The two-in-one Bowery camera bag from Ona can also be used as a camera insert and bag organizer, adding a new level of function to your favorite tote. Unisex in design, your husband will even feel comfortable carrying this water-resistant waxed canvas bag.

 

 

 

Kelly Moore's large Libby bag is big enough to double as a camera and a diaper bag and boasts five padded, adjustable dividers and space for a laptop. This versatile, faux-leather tote can be carried by its shoulder straps or removable messenger strap.
