My Story

Photography & Travelling Abroad

My Travel Journey

I’ve always loved travel and adventure — whether that’s exploring far-flung destinations or discovering a new hike here in the UK.

So far, I’ve travelled to over 20countries, and in 2023 I took the leap and quit my steady professional job (most people thought I was mad) to embark on 18 months of travel with one mission in mind — to find and photograph the most beautiful spots in the world.

I’ve always preferred exploring lesser-known destinations over the usual tourist spots, and I love connecting with local people and learning about their culture along the way.

In 2024, I discovered a real passion for volunteering.

Two of my most unforgettable experiences were at an ethical, hands-off elephant sanctuary in Thailand and a wildlife rehabilitation centre in West Java — and I managed to capture some incredible photos while I was there.

How InWanderment Started

I started InWanderment after realising how hard it was to find reliable information about beautiful photography spots. After countless failed Google searches for “photo spots”, I decided to take matters into my own hands and start documenting the places I discovered.

My Photography Journey

Photography has been an incredible journey for me — one that started completely from scratch. Believe it or not, I only bought my first camera in 2019, and before that, I barely even took photos on my phone.

So when I say I understand how daunting it can feel to learn photography, I really mean it. As I improved, friends and followers began asking me questions like:

📸 How do you make your photographs look like that?
📸 Which camera should I buy?
📸 What are the best locations to take nice photos in the UK?
📸 Can I take good photographs on my phone?

These questions inspired me to create this blog—a space where I can share my adventures as I travel the world, capturing its beauty through my lens.

My goal isn’t just to document my journey, but to inspire others to pick up a camera (or even just a phone) and start taking more photographs.

Because if I can do it, so can you.

Who am I?

I’m Steffan — a travel photographer from Wales with a love for adventure, nature, and the outdoors.

I’m passionate about exploring the world in a way that’s both responsible and meaningful, whether that’s hiking to remote viewpoints, chasing sunrises in the mountains, or discovering hidden waterfalls that few people have ever seen.

Sharing my adventures through photography, video, and writing is what drives me — and I hope it encourages others to get out there, explore, and capture the beauty of the world for themselves.

For me, travel is about far more than just seeing new places. It’s about connecting with local culture, learning from the people I meet, and finding meaning in every journey.

I love diving into different ways of life, discovering new traditions, and experiencing the world through local eyes.

I’ve always had a deep love for animals, which is why I volunteer with wildlife conservation projects whenever I can. Protecting animals and their habitats is an important part of my journey and keeps me closely connected to the natural world.

When it comes to food, I try to eat plant-based as much as possible — for the animals, for the planet, and because it’s a small but meaningful way to live in line with my values and support a more sustainable world.

I’m the photographer behind InWanderment — the one usually found with a camera in hand, chasing light, experimenting with compositions, and trying to capture the feeling of a place through my lens.

At the moment, I’ve just returned to the UK after 18 months of travel and adventure. I’m spending some time volunteering and caring for two amazing dogs in exchange for a place to stay — a slower, more grounded way to live while I focus on editing and sharing the stories and photographs I’ve collected along the way.

Over the next year, my goal is to create as much useful, inspiring content as I can — to help you plan your own adventures, discover new photography spots, and find joy in capturing the world around you.
