As a novice in the photography world this is my ULTIMATE dream, to travel the world and capture the world's most unique sights behind the lens! Isn't it incredible? people used to live WITHIN Machu Pichu ages ago yet the walls are preserved and the grass are green. Just, WOW!

[@CynicalDuchess]

it makes me emotional when people reach their dreams. Also, these photographs took my breath away, you're so talented. both in composition, and in finding the story of the moment.

[@ohmwai]

The contrast between the "self portrait video" and this one is amazing. I love that as a creator you can be vulnerable in both situations and still take beautiful images.

[@Teh-Penguin]

It's always lovely to be part of a project, where afterwards you pinch yourself asking: "did this really happen? wow". Congrats! Nat Geo is a big milestone.

[@jarmen1105]

All the hard work paid off! You’re so passionate about photograph, NG is privileged to have you shoot for them. Congratulations!

[@danrosen1853]

Photographing for Nat Geo has been the dream Ive had since childhood. This is so beautiful and inspiring and energetic to see! Your work is spectacular and powerful, thank you for sharing this story!

[@davidself5235]

I really enjoy how you narrate in these videos. It’s as beautiful and touching and inspiring as your photos, music and video editing. I love you’re not being shallow and that you appreciate what you do to such extend - it really shows. ❤

[@donjagoe]

What a thrill. For every photographer of a certain age, you just lived the dream. Beautiful story and gorgeous images.

[@tharrinway]

whoa! imagine taking a break from chatting to language learners from South America to catch up on KZbin notifications and finding this... Amazing - I'm blown away by your photos here, they really do capture the magic of the locations. Fantastic work! oh.. and the Juan and James moments... the icing on the cake!

[@Coco-ct5ix]

Hey, I love that you loved Peru, I'm Peruvian and I enjoy and feel proud when great photographers come here and make their art. You have to come back and continue exploring all the beautiful places we have.

[@patrickrostker6693]

What stellar colors! You are a great photographer! I really like your story telling method to share about the trip. Man you and the group have a great set of skills, and vibe! What a neat place that gave you amazing light and subjects.

[@thetravelingzam]

what a unique opportunity and cool to get glimpses of those cultures. thanks for sharing the story

[@stayuntilforever]

Wow! A dream for most photographers! Congratulations🎉

[@danny_liao]

"Whoa. We just did that." is the reason why I love my photography career. As an artist, there is no other better feeling. On to the next WHOA!

[@JAG-ALL-EGO]

My daughter recently purchased a film camera at a yard sale and that caused me to pull my film camera out of the dust bin so we could take pictures together on a recent visit. I loved taking pictures with her and how we would discuss the most creative photo options. She is a sophomore at Fordham University and the Bronx campus has many photo opportunities. Two years ago, we took the same trip to Peru you just documented in this video. We literally went to every site you went to but for your climb at Machu Picchu. I now wish my daughter had taken up photography before that trip because we missed so many photo opportunities. This video was very inspiring to me and I am going to share it with my daughter. Great work!!!

[@deepwoodstherapy6688]

Incredible images, incredible story of a once in a lifetime journey and incredible music... well done!

[@rbatbaptista]

Congrats for such a great experience!! Great video and music!!

[@somephotovideos]

It's great to see the Sunny Sixteen crew CRUSHING it with their professional client work - congrats on such an awesome gig! And thanks for bringing us along...

[@coreyfelts5882]

Audibly screamed “WHAT” when I saw the thumbnail. So awesome Taylor! You deserve this opportunity!!

[@AlexPresa]

Incredible opportunity, so proud of ya Taylor! Also the colours from the GFX50S II are actually ridiculous 😮‍💨

[@JeffRevell]

Huayna Picchu is probably the biggest hidden gem in all of Machu Picchu. Getting to the gate at 7:00 am and taking that crazy hike up the mountain gives the best reward ever. The views of Machu Picchu from the top are just stunning. It's also a view of Machu Picchu that most visitors will never get to see, except in photos. I'm so glad I made that hike when I visited in 2011.

[@maxwellwellmax878]

Wow!!!!!! loved the images! loved the Video!! what a great trip!. Congrats on your Nat Geo assignment!!!.

[@shrinivas.a]

Such an amazing opportunity and some really beautiful visuals! I remember eagerly waiting for the latest Nat geo magazines to arrive at a small newspaper stand + book store that was in my local train station. The imagery and stories totally inspired and influenced my worldview!

[@whosjozikolnik]

[@lesterphil9584]

Climbing those stairs with those gears. Wow!! But for National Geographic i'd say that's worth it. Well done you and the Sunny Sixteen team.
