Look what came in the mail

I spy something furry... 

Oh look, it's an Atticus. 

No, I didn't get a kitten in the mail (though that would be awesome). But a present from mom did arrive today. 

Now, the current contents of the box is much cuter than the actual item that arrived. But I am nonetheless extremely excited about it. I've been using my dad's old backpack of a camera bag for the last three years. It's quite nice, just much too large and bulky for my little 50mm lens. I use a shoot sac to hold my extra lenses, so I was just in need of a nice little something to tote my beloved 5D along on portrait sessions. 

Isn't it so pretty? Oh and functional too. I suppose that's important. 

My mom came across Janine King Designs on etsy and sent me the link. I told her I loved it and then a few days later this came in the mail! I know, I have the sweetest mom ever. (thank you mom!) It's the perfect size and matches the print of my shoot sac exactly! I feel like a real photographer now that I can lug my gear around in a fashionable manner. 

Oh and by the way...

 While I've taken these pictures, edited them, uploaded them, written this post... 

Atticus? 

Still in the box. 

Never buy your cat a bed. It's a terrible idea.
