Expedition Photography

 

 

For many years, our travellers shared incredible moments from their expeditions through the Camps International Photo Competition. While we are no longer accepting new entries, we’re proud to showcase some of the amazing images captured by students, teachers and expedition leaders around the world.

Inspiration from our 2025 Winner – Jaedon Hulse

A MASSIVE congratulations to the overall winner of our 2025 Photo Competition Jaedon Hulse with this fantastic Wildlife photo from Ecuador.

“What a beautifully atmospheric image! The soft white mist forms a clean backdrop that helps create contrast and allows the subject to pop. The bird, presumably feeding on the flowers, adds a lovely behavioural element and gives the photograph a clear focal point. With the mountains and cloud cover this image has a lot of elements that helps keep the viewer engaged and gives a strong sense of place. Really well done!”

Great expedition photography goes beyond a good shot. It means respecting the communities and wildlife you encounter, asking permission before photographing people, and leaving places exactly as you found them.
