Welcome to the brand new Epiphanie website! Home of our revolutionary new camera bags for women!
I've been a professional photographer for close to 15 years. During this time much has changed, especially with products exclusively catered toward women. However, I knew there was a huge gap in the market place when I found myself continually wrapping my camera in a hand towel and shoving it inside my purse. Clearly not the safest way to transport expensive equipment, it was less of a hassle than lugging around another bulky camera bag. I needed something practical enough to use during a session, but also versatile enough that I could bring it to a ballet recital, soccer game, a fun weekend or girls' night out. After an extensive search, I realized that my dreamy purse/camera-bag hybrid did not exist. So I set out to create one!
Apparently I wasn't alone! We've been OVERWHELMED by your responses! Literally THOUSANDS of you have written to tell us what you've been using to wrap your cameras: socks, diapers, pot holders, sweatshirts, WIGS! My personal favorite (which I think is actually ingenious) were the maxipads! Clearly there are MANY of us who have been on a quest for some TRULY HOT CAMERA/HANDBAGS. Whether you're a professional photographer, a scrapbooker, or just a girl who loves to take pictures, our bags make it EASY to bring your camera with you everywhere!
We currently have three styles, and this is just the beginning! We're already working on many more styles that will launch this year. Some are still in the design/testing phase. So if there is a special bag that you've been dreaming up, please let us know! It's our goal to create bags that truly offer solutions, WITHOUT sacrificing style. Your feedback means the world to us! Thanks again for visiting!
