I Go Nowhere Without My Camera!

Same here. You never know when that great photo opp is going to come up.

I agree, I'm starting to do this very thing, carry it everywhere, because you just never know. Plus pictures have away of finding you on the net.

What a good tip. I always have my camera in the car but from now on I will keep it in my purse or use my cell phone camera more often. I have tried in the past to take picures when I'm out showing properties particularly on the beachfront and then I can add them to my web site.

Thanks for the reblog, Margaret. The camera these days really IS an indispensible tool and we should never leave home without it (to quasi-quote Amex).

I find having my camera encourages me to pay more attention to the world around me AND to take time to do so.

Hi Margaret, I am with you and Jeff. My camera goes with me every where these days. I want to be ready for anything, and it gives me those opportunities to make more videos too.

Margaret- mine is always in my purse, not just for photos for my blog.  When I'm on a Staging consultation I take photos of the rooms but I also take pics of areas that need to be addressed.... worn carpeting, overgrown shrubs, etc.  It's easier than trying to write it down. 

Me either! Today I took pictures of a house that I previewed for some out of town buyers, went by a home that I am negotiating a contract on, shot a photo of it -- with the hopes of doing a sale pending post on it soon, zoomed by the library and got a shot of the new entrance and patio for the grand opening post I wrote today. My camera is WAY more important than the AMEX card. I try NEVER to leave home without it! ☺

Margaret...

I use my camera to record everything from FSBO yard signs to documents. It's the handiest little memory aid ever invented!

You never know when you need to take a picture of a house . . .  or anything in a neighborhood!

Hi Margaret - When I began blogging seriously, I found that having my camera with me at all times was important.  If I can't have my camera, I do always have my phone and a flip video camera with me- they stay in my purse wherever I go.

Although I have a 7 megapixel water proof (to 10 feet) Pentax camera, and it has served me well, even does video, but my Samsung phone does 8 mega pixel and HD video.  I even found a TRIPOD for the phone.  What a world we are in today.

Margeret - Those sare some really clever uses for yor camera.  Now that I blog I bring mine with me, too.

I always have the best intentions but somehow wind up forgetting mine most of the time.  My phone is always with me, but it doesn't take the best photos.  ;~(

It becomes another appendage...we now have one in the car that stays there so that we can't forget it !

That's great advice. And almost all cameras now have the ability to shoot short videos which are increasing important in marketing in today's world.
