About the service
I make leather camera straps by hand, customized for each person and camera. Before starting, I ask about your camera and lens model, how many hours you typically shoot in one session, and how you prefer to wear the camera — over the shoulder, crossbody, or on the wrist. This determines the strap width, the taper toward attachment points, and the thickness of soft padding, so the final product not only looks great but actually reduces strain on your neck and shoulders.
The main material is full-grain vegetable-tanned leather without thick synthetic coatings: over time it darkens and softens from use rather than cracking or peeling. For heavy mirrorless or DSLR bodies, I add a soft suede backing to distribute weight evenly across your shoulder even during long shooting sessions.
I pay special attention to hardware: I install genuine quick-release connectors compatible with Peak Design attachments, as well as classic split rings and swivels — all riveted, not just glued, so they hold up under real working loads. Length adjusts via a sliding clip or pre-marked evenly-spaced holes — whichever you prefer — and you can optionally add a small pocket for a spare memory card.
Every order includes personalization: embossed initials, a short phrase, or a simple monogram on the leather, plus a choice of edge color and thread color to match your other gear or personal taste. I send photos of each stage up to the final stitching so you can request changes in advance. The typical turnaround is as stated above, and with the finished strap I include brief leather care instructions.
