  • Enter our inner sanctum in a van tour like no other. What is Amanda licking? What's in our fridge and will I ever capture that epic shot of Mt Robson?
    We show you all there is to see in our Bigfoot Truck Camper and perhaps even some things you wish you hadn't. From power sources to domestic comforts, sani-dumps to workspaces - this is what vanlife in a truck camper looks like for the travelling landscape photographer.
    I take advantage of a million photo opportunities and unleash the 100-400mm telephoto lens for some moody mountain mistscapes that you're going to love.
    We catch Amanda in the shower, share our bedroom routine and give you the inside scoop on the Fototripper customer service department. It's everything you imagined and more.

It's (drum roll...) about that ineveitable, do-or-die, raw, un-cut, WYSWYG, image of Gavin and Amanda "Hardcastle." Don't you just love 'em!

    I grew up in the eastern Sierra Nevada in California, and my dad was really into backpacking, so my experience with camping has always been ultralight tents and Jetboil stoves. But 2 years ago, I went on a road trip to Arches National Park in Utah, with a friend that has a zombie apocalypse ready RV. My first time ever traveling this way, and it was awesome! We hooked up at a KOA campsite in Moab, so we had full power, which was good for charging the electronics, and having an air conditioner going all day so we could escape the 95+ degree weather. The campsite had restrooms with showers, a laundry facility, wi-fi, and even a swimming pool. We towed the 4-Runner with us, so we could leave the RV, and go on some day trips, and even did a little 4-wheeling in the desert. I never want to camp any other way ever again!
