HI Travel Tales
We're Michael and Therese, professional storytellers. Telling inspiring, amusing and informative stories in words and photographs is what we do. Together, we are a powerful storytelling team that knows how to discover the unexpected and extraordinary in any destination –- and can tell a compelling tale about it. Our travel is slower and more immersive, allowing us to connect with the soul, culture, and people of a place in ways few others can. Our story and photography interests focus on experiential travel, cultural and historical immersion, the natural world, adventurous experiences, and culinary exploration. Our photography captures and expands the essence and energy of any story or destination. Over the years, we have worked successfully with hotels, DMOs, outdoor brands, tour operators, and travel companies, providing words and photos to help each tell their best story possible. Our travel includes all seven continents, 49 countries (and counting), and all 50 states in the United States. We are proud and active members of the following professional organizations: North American Travel Journalists Association (NATJA where Michael also serves on the advisory board); International Food Wine & Travel Writers Association (IFWTWA); TravMedia; Adventure Travel Trade Association (ATTA); Professional Photographers of America (PPA); North American Nature Photography Association (NANPA), and American Society of Journalists and Authors (ASJA).
