What Makes a Remote Expeditions Photo Tours Different?
The Tristan Edge: Photographer, Guide, Explorer (and Coder!)
Unlike generic tour operators, you’re guided by someone who lives and breathes both photography and South America. With 20 years shaping travel experiences and deep roots across the continent, I blend technical photo expertise with intimate local knowledge. I don’t just point out shots; I help you find the story within the frame. And yes, as a developer, I even built our custom travel app to enhance your journey.


Deep South American Expertise
Forget surface-level trips. My time living, exploring, and building relationships across South America means access to unique locations, genuine cultural encounters, and insights that generic tours miss. We go where the light is best and the stories are richest.
Slow Travel for Photographers
Photography thrives on patience and presence. Our itineraries embrace a slower pace, allowing time for observation, waiting for the perfect light, connecting with subjects, and truly immersing yourself – resulting in more meaningful images.
Our pace allows for more than just capturing images; it’s about connecting – with the place, the culture, and the moment. We build in time to simply be, absorb the atmosphere, and enjoy the journey beyond the viewfinder.


Small, Like-Minded Groups
Travel with a small group of fellow photography enthusiasts (max 8 people). This ensures personalized guidance, comfortable logistics (no crowded vans!), and a supportive atmosphere to share inspiration and techniques.
I intentionally lead only a select number of tours each year. This focus on quality over quantity ensures personalized attention and an exceptional experience for every photographer.
Many of our travelers come through recommendations, fostering a wonderful group dynamic built on shared passion for photography and respectful exploration.
