We’re in Bohol, Philippines and as I photograph and explore the island I wanted to walk you through some of the common myths about travel photographers.
Obviously, there are lots of travel photography stereotypes. People seem to think that being a travel photographer is a constant vacation for trust fund kids. But, the realities on the ground are far different. So, I thought that since this is a travel photography channel it was really important to guide you through the realities.
I mean, the whole reason I started this travel photography vlog in the first place was to give the behind the scene look into the life of a travel photographer.
So, I hope you enjoy this video.
