Make sure I have the camera strap around my
neck and make sure I have a tight grip on the
camera at all times.
Try and take pictures in places where there is
no permission needed. If you have to take
photos in places where there is permission
needed then make sure I have permission.
Make sure any drinks I have are nowhere
near the guitar.
Either make sure you are in an area where
dogs aren’t known for being walked or make

places it down carefully.
