About Flytographer
Flytographer connects people with local photographers in 380+ cities worldwide for fun, hassle-free photoshoots that last about an hour. We offer vacation shoots, surprise proposals, and hometown photo shoots, and we recently launched The Modern Headshot — personal branding lifestyle photos.

Our local photographers are highly curated before joining our team (we hire fewer than 3% of those who apply!); they provide insider tips on what to eat, see and do in each city all while taking stunning images. Customers book their preferred photographer online, and receive their photos only five days after the shoot — often before they’ve even unpacked! For those who value experiences rather than things, it’s the perfect souvenir that provides keepsake memories for decades to come.

Flytographer was founded in Victoria, Canada in 2013 by Nicole Smith, and has since scaled to a team of 12 people (92% female) who work remotely from Honolulu and across BC and Ontario and Quebec. Read our origin story here.
