Plan Your Own Photo Tour

Destination photo guides and travel itineraries optimized for travel photography.

Hey, I’m Reed!

In 2017, on a last-minute spring break trip my senior year of college, I had the amazing privilege of stepping into Zion National Park. That trip opened my eyes to the wonders that the world has to offer. From then on, I decided I would never stop exploring. So far…

  • I’ve taken 156 flights (23 international flights paid with miles).

  • I’ve visited 33 United States national parks.

  • I’ve added 22 passport stamps.

  • I’ve spent 602 days traveling the world.

Even though much of my travels are spent solo (269 days to be exact), my trusty (and heavy) camera always comes with me! No matter where I go, I’m always in awe of the places I get to experience. My goal is to capture that feeling of awe through photography.

From the hustle and bustle of Tokyo, Japan, to the sacred ruins of Machu Picchu in Peru, the charming canals of Venice, Italy (where I took this photo of myself), and the sparkling night skies above Mount Rainier National Park in Washington state, I’m lucky to have photographed so many breathtaking destinations around the globe.

I’ve poured my travel photography experiences into this website, including photography guides to destinations I’ve visited around the world, photo-focused travel itineraries, and practical resources to help you plan your own photo tour.

If you’re ready to start planning photography-driven trips, then you’re in the right place.
