Tripod An essential piece of photography equipment you must pack for Memorial Day weekend is a tripod. A tripod is necessary when taking long exposures to ensure quality photos. If you plan to include yourself in any of these Memorial Day weekend photos, you’ll need to mount your camera on the tripod and trigger the shutter with a remote. Filters This Memorial Day weekend get-together is the perfect time to practice your creativity. Make sure you pack your polarizing and neutral density filters to give yourself several artistic options. The filters will help bring out the colors of the sky, swimming pool, or ocean in your Memorial Day weekend images. 
Memory Cards The worst thing that could happen during this Memorial Day weekend is that you go to take that epic shot of all 5 generations of the family, and your memory card is full! You can’t pack too many memory cards from Beachcamera.com for your Memorial Day weekend. Camera Bag The last thing on your Memorial Day weekend photography packing list should be something to carry all of this essential gear. You’ll want a camera bag or backpack large enough to hold your cameras, lenses, filters, extra memory cards and your tripod. You don’t want to be searching through multiple bags once all of the fun begins. If all of your gear isn’t handy, within reach, chances are you will miss some once-in-a-lifetime shots. 
You’ll be ready to capture all the fun of Memorial Day weekend if you remember to pack all of these essential photography items.
