    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!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    I studied photography in college and on the first day our instructor asked us to write our dream photography job on a piece of paper and drop it into a jar. He read them out and 70% of us wanted to be National Geographic photographers. It’s lovely to see somebody go ahead and do it.

    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!!!

    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.

    I love how usually one gets disappointed when repeatedly seeing the same pictures of the popular sites but I need to say that not a single picture I saw in this video from you disappointed me and not a single one of those Machu Pichu pictures have I ever seen before. It is such a skill to even in a well perceived environment like this one find the beauty in the details none of the many people visiting had captured before. I am shaken by your talent and am happy you got this opportunity! :)

    Hello Ms. Graincheck! I dont know your name yet, bc this is the first video I saw from your channel. Just wanna say that it was AMAZING to watch you tell your experience, no motion graphics, no crazy zoom or fast cut to keep the audience. Literally just someone telling a story. This showed me that we can still keep our own styles and we dont need to do everything "for the algorithim". Congrats, you are amazing.
    *and now I'll go check your channel and discover your name haha
