Hi all, I am finally picking up work as an events and product photographer/videographer.

I currently am stuck with my Sony A6100 with an F 3.5 - 5.6 28-70mm and Godox IM30 flash. I also own a dirt cheap amazon tripod which I use on occation.

I am considering upgrading my arsenal but don't know where to start.

• I was thinking of getting a basic lights set up (softbox, stands etc) on Amazon for headshots I may have to do in the coming weeks.
• I also was thinking of getting an attachable softbox for my Godox Flash for events.
• I think I need a new lens for events/profiles too.
• I also need a new tripod/tall camera stand. I was thinking the Victiv 78''.
• I think I need mics/gimble if I do more video content for clients going forward.

As you can imagine I am a little overwhelmed by where to start and I am looking for some guidance.

TLDR: I need lights, lenses and tripods what first?
