  1. Amazing Post! I am so happy to read the full story behind your job and how you started ๐Ÿ™‚ do you think it would work now as well? when instagram isn’t that new anymore? ๐Ÿ™‚ (dont know if that sentance makes sens ๐Ÿ˜€ hope you understand)
    Love from Germany <3

    1. Thank you! yes, I mean I’ve grown from 100,000-1,000,000 in under a year.. its possible. Just have to reallllyyy stand out as its the dream for most people! ๐Ÿ™‚

      1. But how can I stand out?
        I really love taking pictures but I think right now I need this changing point that will let my account grow so that more people can find me (like the point when you started travelling with Jack ๐Ÿ™‚ ) I don’t want to sound like someone that thinks that it is super important to have many followers but I think its because I am kind of uninspired of my life… I just really want to start travelling but fist I have to finish school ๐Ÿ˜€
        Love from Germany :*
        Just want to tell you that you and Jack are my biggest Inspiration, your pictures are on my homework planner and when I sit in school and being bored I look at them and imaging I could be in the sunshine and out exploring ๐Ÿ˜€

  2. Wow, literally a dream come true! How did you contact companies though? Did you have to do it all professionally through email and to the right person or could you do it through social media?

  3. Wow this is a dream come true, credits to the pair of you! This is such a humble and inspiring article. Keep it up guys

  4. That is an amazing story in which you love to live! I would like to learn what kind of equipments are you using for taking photographs. It is so hard to catch the light but at the same time it is also hard to show the light you were experiencing.

  5. You said that brands / companies contact you. How do you instigate that. Do you research then than #hashtag them and wait. Im very curious about the process. You guys are amazing. I check your insta every day.

    1. Hey, no I never had to do that. I guess by my imagery, it spoke for itself, its not just about contacting them and asking to work with you, its them wanting to work with you. If your imagery is unique and has something special to it, you’ll gain followers and get noticed by companies and thats how I got work in the beginning!
      Thanks

  6. I love travelling…..And you are so inspirational….. Please help me and guide me for career please …….you are my role model ….I want to do my career in traveling ….I need your help

  7. What an inspiring article! Now I know that you didn’t achieve this overnight. I have been travelling quite a bit as well and just started to realise last year that maybe I can start posting my photos to instagram and grow my influence. But currently I only have about 5800 followers! Lol. Hopefully I can achieve my dream the way you do! Thanks!

  9. Really nice to hear your story and how you got to where you are. Your content’s always so beautiful and inspiring!

  10. Totally loving this! My partner and I are very inspired by your work and how far you have gone, as we hope for a life travelling too, but to create something at the time.
    Btw, guys, does it bother you when businesses take your pics to showcase for themselves without giving you credit?
    I’ve seen twice how a business in my island has done it and is very annoying even if they are not my pics :/

    You inspires everyone.
    A truly influencer.
    I love your pictures and writings.
    If one day I meet you and greet you, I hope you’ll greet me back โ˜บ๏ธ

  14. I’m sixteen and have a dream of traveling the world. Your story and all the places you travel make it seem possible for me to adventure. It’s my dream to travel and not have to worry about money. I don’t know how I’ll do it, but I know that I’m going to try thanks to you and your encouraging story.

  15. This is inspiring! While i do follow you, i did not feel entirely inspired as i didnt know your back story of how you started. I would love to see how your pictures have developed in the time as you have learned more about photographing and edits.
