Help Me Replace My Camera Gear
Donation protected
I've been taking photos for nearly five years, starting when I was 13. I've been able to to capture some of my favorite artists and experienced some amazing things along the way. Photography has kept me happy and given me a way to be creative and meet people from all over. I have loved being able to share my work on Instagram and help inspire other people interested in photography and music.
Recently, on a family trip in LA, our car was broken into and my backpack containing all of my camera equipment was stolen. The cameras, flashes, lenses, and other equipment was worth $7,500. Any funds donated will be used for purchasing replacement equipment.
I'm grateful that this incident, while deeply upsetting for me and my family, only involved theft and not physical injury. The equipment is thankfully replaceable, but it has been difficult for me to move on and deal with the loss of the tools that keep me happy.
All I want to do is get back to shooting shows and artists, but it's difficult when you don't have a camera. Without a camera, I'm out of work. I'm in high school and my resources and time are limited for replacing what was stolen.
I'm a self-made photographer trying to pursue what I love to do, and I am deeply appreciative for any help to get me back behind the lens.
For donations of $100 or more, I would like to offer a print of any photo from my Instagram as a gesture of my appreciation.
I cannot fully express how much it would mean to me to get my gear back. Any donation makes an impact, both financially and emotionally.
With deepest thanks,
Garrett Bruce
