Partnerships

Adventure travel photography partnerships for brands, expeditions, and destinations

Adventure Travel Photography partners with travel companies, expedition operators, destinations, and adventure brands to capture real journeys as they happen. Instead of creating one-off campaign shots, we build long-term visual storytelling partnerships, producing inclusive, documentary-style imagery that showcases the authentic spirit of adventure.

By working embedded on trips alongside travelers, guides, and local communities, I create people-centered, immersive media that reflects the true experience of adventure travel—while delivering content that’s fully usable across websites, campaigns, social media, and paid marketing.

Who partnerships are for

  • Adventure travel companies and tour operators

  • Expedition and experiential travel brands

  • Transportation partners

  • Tourism boards and destinations

  • Brands aligned with travel, exploration, and outdoor experiences

How It Works

  1. Discovery: We discuss your goals and vision.

  2. Planning: We design a photography plan tailored to your trips or campaigns.

  3. On-Trip Capture: We join your adventure and capture real moments in action.

  4. Delivery: You receive high-quality, ready-to-use imagery to tell your story.

This approach is best suited for teams seeking authentic adventure travel imagery with long-term value. All imagery is captured in real-world conditions on active itineraries. We travel with the group, adapt to changing environments, and document moments as they happen without disrupting the experience. This results in adventure travel imagery that feels honest, immersive, and human, while still meeting the needs of creative and marketing teams.
