The Return of the Wayfayer by Patrick Chow

It's taken a long while but I have finally gotten around to the redesign of my website: The Wayfayer! 

Just for some background, the site is centered around an important aspect of my life: travel. Ever since I was little I have traveled with my family, friends, or by myself to places and have experienced and appreciated things that I wanted to remember. Small beautiful memories and experiences would be forgotten days, weeks, or years later. I wanted a place where I could share and preserve those memories through images and stories so that they could exist in a medium for others to enjoy and see as well.

In addition, the site is heavily focused on pictures. My grandfather was an avid photographer and he housed albums upon albums full of travel and family photos of his journeys with my grandmother and father. I would pour over these albums and was always interested by the stories behind the images. Like my grandfather before me, I too am an avid photographer who loves taking pictures everywhere I go. While the ability to share photos was restricted to physical printouts, slide projectors, or through spoken word in the past, the advent of technology has enabled new mediums for sharing memories and photos and The Wayfayer is a product of that.

In the "Go" section of the site, there are glimpses of my recent travels and will be continually updated in the future. The "Projects" section will house all photography projects unrelated to travel specifically. The "Blog" will continue to house stories and adventures related to my travels and adventures. Lastly, the "About" section houses a short biography and an updated list of the equipment I use.

I hope you enjoy the site and let me know what you think!

Sincerely,

Patrick Chow
