We are Mandy & Phil

Photographers & Filmmakers

We both live to experience this amazing planet in full and we love the challenge of creating beautiful content together. Long before we met, both of us chose a career that would push us to forge our own paths: Mandy as a videographer, and Philipp as a photojournalist.

In 2017 we discovered a vibrant community of travel-savvy creatives, making friends with some of the most inspirational and talented people in the industry. We loved what they had to bring to the table, and felt encouraged to share our common adventures and tricks of the trade with the world. We believed that joining forces and sharing our strengths could only benefit the separate social communities we had already built, and thus Capturing Wanderlust was born.

Capturing Wanderlust is about unleashing the power of visual storytelling. We can help you build excitement around a destination, an experience or a product.

We've worked with some of the best, shooting entire campaigns or consulting behind the scenes on creative edits. Mandy has directed short films with BBC for iPlayer, and teaches filmmaking at YouTube HQ in London. Philipp has shot images for some of the largest companies in the world and runs workshops and masterclasses for leading brands in the photography industry. You've probably seen his work and not known he was behind the lens. We want to show our craft in the most beautiful way possible and to teach others how to hone theirs.

Ultimately, our goal together is to inspire and to teach others who want to explore the world or pick up a camera and make something beautiful.

Why Partner With Capturing Wanderlust?

We've been working full-time in online spaces long enough to know they're not the future. They are the present. People go online first for all their information before reaching for a guidebook. It's quick and people trust the experience-based information from a community like ours, built on a common love for travel and photography. Although Capturing Wanderlust is new, both of us have already had success partnering with tourism brands worldwide in the last year with our own respective online spaces (Twitter, Instagram and YouTube).

If you are a travel or production related company looking to improve your online visibility, influence, or brand identity, Capturing Wanderlust can help.
