As avid cyclist and photographer, carrying my camera with me on rides presents a vexing predicament: store my camera in a bag, but limit accessibility, or carry it via a shoulder strap, but deal with it or the strap getting in the way. Over the course of seven months, I designed and developed a new camera strap unavailable on the market. I then turned it into a successful Kickstarter in July 2021, raising over $12,000 from over 200 backers in less than 48hrs.

Most camera straps don't account for the dynamic nature of cycling—steep descents and rutted terrain cause the camera to flop in front and in the way. Camera straps that do exist on the market today rely on a clumsy three strap setup that results in extra strap webbing that also gets in the way.

I aimed to design a camera strap that would solve three key, interrelated issues:

  1. Match the performance of existing three point camera straps

  2. Exceed the speed and ergonomics of existing three point camera straps

  3. Be usable as a traditional two point camera strap when off the bike without needing to modify any camera attachment points


In addition, the strap needed to be simple to manufacture as a small operation, with off-the-shelf components easily sourced during 2021.

As the sole creator, I had to organize all facets of the campaign:

  • Developing the marketing strategy

  • Writing, directing, shooting, and editing the Kickstarter video

  • Managing backer relations

  • Reaching out to media outlets


The Kickstarter was successfully funded in less than 48hrs. We raised over $12,000 from over 200 backers. From this campaign, I was able to donate 100% of the profits, or $4,000, to organizations in the Bay Area helping improve access to cycling and photography.

After the campaign, I partnered with my friend Jessica Chan to help manufacture the straps. Finally, I fulfilled and distributed straps to all 200
