I turn journeys into stories that make travelers hit book now
Hi! I'm Dawn, a travel creator for the girls who want to experience everything the world has to offer. From relaxing getaways to trying new foods to full-on adventures, I turn destinations into stories worth booking, with cinematic video, crave-worthy food content, detailed itineraries, and FAA-certified drone aerials.
With 3+ years of experience, 30+ U.S. states explored, a background in marketing, I know how to position your destination, hotel, or experience for travelers who are ready to commit. My work captures not just what a place looks like, but what it feels like: the slow mornings, the first bites, the summit views, the unexpected discoveries.
For brands and tourism boards, that means content built to convert: scroll-stopping creative made for the feeds where travel decisions actually happen.

My Four Pillars
Relaxation & wellness - Slow mornings, spa days, and restorative getaways
Food & drink - New flavors worth traveling for, from street food to fine dining, shot to crave.
Adventure - Hikes, paddles, and wide-open spaces for the thrill-seekers.
Destinations & itineraries - the full side-quest guide: where to go, what to skip, and the hidden gems in between.
Every project pulls from these pillars, mixed to match your destination.
If that's your traveler, we're already aligned.

“Why bring in a content creator when I already have listing photos and reviews?”
Here is the thing: your property deserves more than static images.
Travelers booking on social media want to experience your stay before they commit. Let me show you how that changes bookings.
-
Travelers do not book from a photo gallery, they book from a feeling. My content puts viewers inside the experience: the morning light in the room, the plate arriving at the table, the view from the trail. When people can feel the stay before they arrive, they stop comparing prices and start checking calendars.
By showcasing your property through authentic, engaging content featuring real experiences, you can put your destination in front of new audiences and give potential guests a genuine look at what makes your stay worth visiting. Social media allows properties to build awareness, inspire travel decisions, and ultimately turn online discovery into real-world bookings.
-
A creator's lens reads as a real guest's recommendation, not an ad. My travel content is built to be shared and saved, which puts your destination in front of travelers who trust people over polished campaigns. Every video and photo set becomes an asset you reuse across your own channels.
User-generated content gives potential guests that authentic perspective. Featuring real people enjoying your property helps showcase the atmosphere, amenities, and overall experience in a way that feels relatable and trustworthy. Rather than simply telling travelers what makes your property special, you can show them through genuine experiences that capture attention and help them picture themselves there.
-
Travel marketing is evolving, and today’s guests are looking for more than a list of reviews or a traditional blog post. They want to see the experience for themselves and discover what they could do, see, and enjoy during their stay.
Content can bring that experience to life through:
Sample itineraries and day-in-the-life content
Property amenities and standout features
Local attractions, restaurants, and activities
Property walkthroughs and room tours
Behind-the-scenes and on-site experiences
Creative transitions and engaging short-form videos
By incorporating a variety of content into your social media strategy, your property can showcase more than where guests will stay—it can show them why they’ll want to visit in the first place.

Travel and Tourism Bookings
"One trip, four kinds of content."
In Puerto Rico, I produced a multi-day content series across four verticals: a river walk through El Yunque rainforest, snorkeling alongside sea turtles, ziplining through the canopy, and a cultural walkthrough of Old San Juan. The result is a library of cinematic short-form video and photography that shows how one destination can feed adventure, wildlife, and culture content for months. For tourism brands, that's the model: one trip, endless angles.

"Stay the night, sell the road trip."
At Parc Omega in Quebec, I documented a two-part experience: an overnight stay inside the park, followed by a drive-through safari among elk, bison, deer, wolves, and bears. The content pairs cozy lodging storytelling with wide-open wildlife encounters, the exact combination that drives road-trip bookings. For parks and resorts, this is proof that stay-plus-experience packages are content gold.

"The ultimate bucket-list drive"
I gifted my boyfriend the Xtreme Xperience and treated it like a client shoot. POV driving footage, cinematic track shots, and high-energy short-form edits of Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Porsche supercars at full tilt. Experience brands run on adrenaline and shareability, and this is what that looks like captured right.

"The listing photos didn't do it justice."
For Kings Cottage, a Lake Placid Airbnb, I created what every short-term rental needs but few have: warm interior photography, lifestyle shots that sell the experience instead of just the rooms, and a video walkthrough cut for Reels. The Adirondacks did half the work; my job was making viewers feel the cozy before they ever arrived. For hosts and property managers, this is the difference between a listing and a booking.
