mod. by C. Decor is a mother and daughter owned business created by Jeannie Cheatham and Amber Clay. An avid photo enthusiast, Amber was searching for a new camera strap. All she found were low quality straps in limited basic styles and colors. She set out to create her own strap cover using her existing strap as the base. Choosing stylish fabrics in vibrant colors and textures, she began sewing on her grandmother’s old sewing machine with Jeannie’s help. The idea for a business was taking form.
I'm not sure if any of my readers noticed but I absolutely love photographing my kids. Whether it's the weekly Wordless Wednesday pictures or photos of my kids making crafts, I enjoy capturing the small and large moments we share together. So for the most part I have one or both of my cameras strapped to me at all times.
I had the pleasure of trying out a gorgeous basic camera strap for my DSLR camera in Black & Turquoise Damask. As soon as I got my package I ripped it open to test out this bad boy. Not only was the print gorgeous, but the minky backing was super soft and comfortable.
The length of the strap was a bit longer than the standard Nikon strap that came with the camera so it didn't do the funky under-the-boob thing that my Nikon strap did when I carried the camera across my chest.
Now this might sound silly but it isn't! My normal strap would place the camera right underneath my boob and armpit if I wore it across my chest as pictured below. And that is just NOT attractive! And since I'm constantly running after one kid or another when out and about I need a comfortable, secure position for my camera.
Not only is this camera strap comfy and stylish but it's a high quality, durable strap that's sure to last in this kid-friendly household.
Another item I absolutely love from mod. is their compact camera pouch and strap. Not only is it a safe place for your point and shoot camera, it's also roomy enough to throw in your cell phone to carry around when you're on the go. The minky lining protects your camera and phone at the same time! And the matching strap is just adorable. I cannot wait to share it with my mommy friends.
From camera straps, to bags, to accessories, mod. has everything a mama needs for her camera care. And the products are stylish to boot! With the amount of fabric and color choices, there's a pattern for every person and every season. And the best part? They're made in America!
So whether you're a professional photographer (like a few of my friends out there) or a parent who loves capturing the small and large moments in your child's life, check out mod. if you're in need of a camera accessory that will not only compliment your camera but your outfit too.

We have these MOD straps and love them!! What a great review!!
A good camera strap is a must! I'm so glad you found one. I'll have to check them out!
Those are seriously cute. I wish I owned a camera to hang from my neck like the woman in the picture!
I'm heading over to go Pin some of those products from the website so I can remember them for when I'm searching for gifts to buy for my photog friends.

Haha! That's me in the picture :) Do you like the self-portraits?
Oh my word! I love them! I need to get straps for my friend who is a photographer! She would love them too!
I want one of those straps! HOW COOL!!!
I am always interested in a comfy camera strap. My original Nikon strap is really getting uncomfortable. I will check them out and see about getting something that I like. I would really love to get one of the cap savers, and I like how I can get one for free.
Thanks for sharing,
