Show travelers what makes a place worth experiencing.
Assignments can include neighborhoods, landmarks, food, culture, outdoor activities, festivals, local businesses, and the details that give a destination its personality.
Create a more complete visual story of the guest experience.
Coverage can include accommodations, amenities, dining, atmosphere, surrounding attractions, and candid lifestyle imagery—not just empty rooms and architectural photographs.
Document what it actually feels like to participate.
I can photograph tours, guides, excursions, transportation experiences, outdoor adventures, and cultural activities from a traveler’s perspective.
Introduce useful products through authentic travel situations.
Potential projects include gear photography, destination-based product imagery, field testing, sponsored features, and honest reviews for products that are genuinely relevant to Flashpacker HQ’s audience.
Flashpacker HQ includes an extensive archive of travel, destination, cultural, and event photography created across years of international travel.
Existing images may be licensed for editorial, commercial, web, social, or promotional use. If the right image does not already exist, custom photography can be discussed.
I created Flashpacker HQ in 2010 while traveling and teaching English in Japan. What began as a way to share photographs and stories developed into a collection of destination guides, travel resources, photo essays, and firsthand experiences from years on the road.
Today, I bring that travel background together with my professional photography experience to create visual content that is both polished and grounded in genuine experience.

Flashpacker HQ is especially interested in working with:
Hosted and discounted travel collaborations are welcome when the project offers a strong editorial and photographic fit. Complimentary travel or products do not guarantee positive coverage, and sponsored or affiliate relationships will be disclosed clearly.
Flashpacker HQ previously partnered with Stray to document an extended trip through New Zealand.
The collaboration resulted in a multi-post travel series, extensive photography, destination coverage, and firsthand reporting about the experience of traveling through the country.
This kind of sustained visual storytelling can give a destination or travel company far more useful material than a single promotional mention.
Every partnership can be tailored to the destination, audience, and campaign.
We align on the goals, audience, location, deliverables, schedule, and usage rights.
I capture authentic, professional travel imagery with an experienced documentary approach.
You receive carefully edited images in the agreed formats, ready for publication or promotion.
If you represent a destination, accommodation, tour, publication, event, or travel-related brand, tell me what you are promoting, what visual content you need, and where the project will take place.
I can then recommend an appropriate scope, deliverables, licensing arrangement, and project quote.
