Sometimes, it’s simply not enough to read about far-off destinations and crazy expeditions — you have to visualize them clearly enough to imagine yourself there in that precise experience.
When you ask yourself why you travel, perhaps it’s because you love the unexpected. You’re drawn to the energy in discovering the new, waking up in the morning and feeling like anything could happen. Never visiting the same place twice, travel is your counter to the consistent schedule that life provides. And if you ask yourself why you carry a camera, you’ll have a similar purpose: to notice the tiny details you wouldn’t be able to otherwise.
We’ve compiled a list of our favorite travel photographers to follow on Instagram. But, their work goes far beyond their feeds. They evoke a sense of immense talent that can only be soaked through everyday loyalty. Check out this list, listen to their podcasts and portfolios, and give them a follow.
