One-on-One Trip Planning with a Professional Travel Photographer

Don’t miss the shot. Let me help you plan for it.

Overview

Planning a photography-focused trip can be overwhelming. From figuring out the best places to shoot, to when the light is just right, to knowing which lens to pack — there are a lot of decisions to make.

This one-on-one Zoom session is your chance to get personalized travel photography advice from someone who’s spent the past 25 years exploring cities, coastlines, and wild places around the world — camera in hand.

Whether you're headed to Paris, Patagonia, Tokyo, or Tuscany, I’ll help you make sure your photography trip is well-planned and creatively inspired, so you come home with the images you dreamed of (and then some).

What’s Included

✅ Photography Location Planning
I’ll help you create a customized itinerary of the best photo spots, including off-the-beaten-path gems and iconic views.

✅ Best Times to Shoot
Get expert advice on lighting, golden hour, blue hour, and seasonal conditions for each location.

✅ Gear Recommendations
Not sure whether to bring the telephoto or the prime? We’ll walk through your gear and make sure you’re bringing the right tools for your destination and style.

✅ Hotel and Base Recommendations
Stay where it’s convenient for sunrise shoots and late-night strolls with your camera. I’ll recommend hotels that are photographer-friendly and well-located.

✅ Custom Travel Tips
From sunrise entry times to tripod rules at major landmarks, you’ll get insider tips to save time, avoid tourist traps, and make the most of your trip.
