Vlogging
The essentials I use to film the BTS of life and work.
Just a heads up: This page has some affiliate links (marked with a *). If you click on one of these and buy something, I get a little bit of money, but it doesn't cost you anything extra.
DJI Osmo Pocket 3
My go-to for buttery smooth, high-quality videos without using up all my phone storage. It’s compact, super discreet, and the built-in stabilizer makes every shot look cinematic (even when I’m chasing toddlers).

DJI Osmo Pocket 3
Got mine at Costco and skipped the Creator Combo. I just added my own mic, wide lens, and case. The price difference wasn’t that much but I got the exact accessories that I wanted.
-
DJI Mic Mini
Obsessed with how tiny and versatile this mic is. It clips on (or magnet-sticks!) without pulling on my shirt, and doubles as my MacBook mic for screen recordings.
-
DJI Mic Phone Adapter
The DJI Mic Mini doesn’t come with a lightning adapter, so I grabbed this to do voiceovers right from my iPhone. Super handy when I’m editing on the go.

Magnetic Filter
The ND2–32* stays on my camera most of the time. It’s perfect for controlling light. But I love switching things up with the CPL to enhance color and reduce glare, or the Black Diffusion for a softer, more cinematic shot.
-
Screen Protector
Protects both the lens and screen and gives everything a nice clean finish. If you're getting magnetic lens filters, check first…they might include one too.
-
Camera Case
It took many tries to find “the one,” but this case fits my Osmo Pocket 3 and all the accessories I listed on this page. It also feels well-made, and has a wide opening that makes packing super easy.
-
Lexar micro SD Card
After way too much research, I landed on this 512GB Lexar card—the max storage the Osmo Pocket 3 can handle. No more running out of space mid-shoot!
-
Upgraded Protective Case
Clicks right onto the OG case and gives me room for filters. Love a two-in-one win.
-
SmallRig Clamp
This little clamp is way more fun than it looks. I use it to play around with camera angles and to mount other tech things like my Rode mic.
-
Silicone Desktop Mount
No twisting or screwing. Just pop it on the desk and hit record. My go-to mount for quick Osmo shots.
-
AirTag
This little guy lives on my camera in case it ever goes missing (aka ends up in a toy bin or under the couch). I grabbed the 4-pack*, but you can snag a single one with the link below if that’s all you need.
-
AirTag Cover
Because even trackers deserve to be cute. This one’s my fave because the print shows on both sides.
-
ULANZI Adapter
I use this adapter to attach my magnetic base using the ¼" thread on the back. And it even works with a shoe mount if I want to pair it with a camera. Versatile and surprisingly sturdy!
-
Magnetic Camera Mount
The 66mm magnetic base is my go-to from this set. I use it with my neck mount* or pop it onto any magnetic surface to film hands-free wherever I am.
Cell Phone
-
Magnetic Selfie Mirror
This snaps right onto my phone so I can see exactly what I’ll look like. No lag, no battery drain, just a crystal-clear preview (especially helpful when filming in 0.5x).
-
Magnetic Camera Neck Holder
Need a second pair of hands? This magnetic neck holder keeps my phone (or Osmo Pocket 3) steady so I can film from my POV without holding anything.
-
Selfie Stick Tripod
The one tripod I actually bring with me. It’s compact enough for my bag, has a built-in Bluetooth remote, and turns into a selfie stick when needed.
