For more than a decade, ItsJustLight.com has been your go-to source for photography tips, travel guides, in-depth reviews, and creative inspiration. Founded by photographer and creative developer Nikki Zantop, the site was born from a deep love of capturing the world through the lens and sharing that knowledge with a community of like-minded creatives.

For photographers, light is our medium, our canvas, and our brush. ItsJustLight.com is a vibrant hub of photography inspiration, knowledge, and techniques. We believe that photography is about taking the time to notice the details that others might miss, and we’re here to celebrate our shared passion.

Whether you’re just starting out or are already a seasoned pro, you’ll find a wealth of tutorials and guides on all things photography and travel—from mastering sunset shots to buying a used camera, picking the best national parks to travel to, and even leveling up your marketing game on social media.

And here’s the best part: all the content on ItsJustLight.com is completely FREE to access. Some of our articles contain affiliate links, meaning we may earn a small commission—at no extra cost to you—when you make a purchase. These commissions help us continue creating in-depth guides, reviews, and inspiration for photographers and travelers like you. If you’d like to support directly, you can also buy us a coffee—even a small contribution goes a long way in keeping the site running and ad-free as much as possible.

We really believe in the concept of ‘less is more.’ Photography gear should be an investment, not just another purchase. That’s why we focus on recommending well-made, reliable gear and sharing tips to help you maximize what you already have—so your equipment lasts for years to come while reducing unnecessary consumption.
