Travel photography has changed — and sometimes, for the better. Gone are the days of hauling massive camera bags, swapping lenses constantly, and feeling like your gear is running the trip instead of enhancing it. Today’s many travel photographers are packing lighter, moving faster, and focusing on something far more than just specs: telling better stories. The modern travel photographer isn’t just taking photos anymore. They’re capturing moments, shooting short video clips, posting along the way, and building memories that feel real. And the way people are spending money on gear […]

Costa Rica Travel has been on my photography list for years — a place where every corner is alive, every landscape feels like it’s breathing, and the wildlife looks like it was designed for a nature documentary. This trip isn’t about overpacking or carrying a full studio on my back. It’s about shooting fast, light, and on the move while still getting professional-level results. Sony & Henry’s sent over a ZV-E1 paired with the 20–70mm f/4 G lens, and honestly, it couldn’t have arrived at a better time. Between dense rainforest canopies, golden coasts, jungle […]

With my wife, two kids, an iPhone, DJI Air 3S drone, and our trusty rented Scout camper from Northirn Overland, we embarked on an epic journey into British Columbia’s vast, wild landscapes. […]

If you’re anything like me, preparing for a family trip with some photography-focus can be equally exciting and overwhelming. Here’s my approach to sorting out what gear to pack, how I’ll organize it, and how I’m […]

Sony Alpha Universe Report by Katrin Eismann – 2024.05.20 Photographer and Sony Artisan Katrin Eismann (@katrin_eismann) loves to travel, but she doesn’t want to be weighed down by gear. “In travel and street photography, for me it’s best to be nimble and not draw a lot of attention to myself with a bulky backpack, showy camera straps or multiple camera bodies,” she explains. “When I travel, I am up and out with the dawn to experience the city or countryside as they wake up to a new day. In my early morning wanderings, […]
