Our Journey of Photography & Videos

We started our YouTube channel in 2020 filming with our old-model iPhones.
A van-build, traveling, upgrading to professional gear, and over 230 videos later,
WE’RE HOOKED
on photography, videography, and creating videos.

“I never imagined becoming a photographer, videographer, or filmmaker, but I trusted an unexpected path.

Now I can’t imagine my life without a camera in hand.

I am so grateful to have found a passion that fulfills both my creative side and my technical tendencies.”

Kristina’s Kit

On New Year’s Eve 2022, Kristina took a giant leap and invested in a Canon R6 with an RF 24-70mm f/2.8 lens and there was no going back!

Finding a Workflow that Works for Us

We’ve found what works for us - Kristina filming and shooting with the R6 and Matt applying his abundant creative skills armed with a GoPro. The GoPro makes it easy for Matt to capture multiple angles while hiking or adventuring and we can document our experiences in and out of the van by using a variety of flexible mounts.
