You’re not a tourist — so why shoot like one?
Weren’t you looking for what was there?

Are you a tourist or an Anthony Bourdain?
Let’s see. Have you ever paid for a ride on a double-decker tour bus? No, probably not. What’s the point of that?
When you travel, you do your best to really explore. If experience can be bought, how much is it really worth?
You wouldn’t go to Paris to only see the Eiffel tower and the Mona Lisa. You want a real taste of what it’s like to be there.
You go into the dark bars, forgotten neighborhoods, those winding paths that never seem to end. It’s not a tour that you want but a becoming.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/2″][vc_single_image image=”385721″ alignment=”center”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1479713395144{padding-top: 5% !important;padding-right: 10% !important;padding-bottom: 5% !important;padding-left: 10% !important;}”]
So the question is, does your photography reflect that?
If you had to stop and think about it, would you say you’re shooting the way you travel? Do you capture moments that are genuine and real and true to life? Or you, unknowingly, going after clichés?[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row font_color=”#000000″ css=”.vc_custom_1479713137172{background-color: #000000 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1479713447677{padding-top: 5% !important;padding-right: 10% !important;padding-bottom: 5% !important;padding-left: 10% !important;}”]
If that’s the case, how do you avoid them? That’s what you want, right? You want to study travel photography so that you know exactly what to avoid. You don’t want quick dos and don’ts. You want a fully comprehensive and info-packed unveiling of its specific art.

And that’s what Tom Ang’s Travel Photographer’s Handbook is.
In this Tom Ang Photography Book, you’ll get 164 pages that fully explore what it means to shoot travel photography. Starting with a breakdown of the different gear and cameras, it goes over every aspect of the genre.

Hey Bill, Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We are glad that you like it 🙂
Bill –
This is a detailed book more aimed at “Expedition” level photography for serious photo travelers. It covers everything one would need to know from planning, packing, protecting equipment to publication usage, model releases, visas, health, camera and lens choices, dealing with uncomfortable people situations and how to create comfortable photo relationships. All is heavy-duty information way beyond the needs of a casual photo traveler looking to take better ‘snapshots’.
I was doubtful about the book, not being able to find any reviews or mentions of it. But now it will be my Go-To book for photo adventures.
