If you find value in the guides, videos, or resources shared here and would like to help keep them going and improving, there are a few simple ways to support Cosmic Captures.

This work is created independently, and ongoing support is what makes the monthly guides and videos possible.

Join Cosmic Captures on Patreon

Patreon supporters help make the guides and videos possible and get a look behind the scenes as new projects and ideas take shape.

Supporters receive:

Early access to guides and videos

Behind-the-scenes content and experiments

• A chance to shape future projects

Or, as I like to put it:

“If you enjoy the taste on YouTube, you can watch me cook in the Cosmic Kitchen.”

Support Cosmic Captures when buying gear

If you’re purchasing astrophotography gear anyway, using the partner shops below helps support Cosmic Captures at no extra cost to you. I receive a small commission, which helps fund the guides and videos.

I only recommend stores I trust and use myself.

Affiliate links typically expire after a short period, so it's best to use them just before making a purchase.

If Patreon isn’t your thing, you can also support Cosmic Captures with a one-time or monthly contribution below.
