Program Details
We are looking for a passionate and skilled photographer to join us in the heart of the Wadi Rum desert. As a volunteer, you will have the opportunity to document the breathtaking desert landscapes, capture the magic of our Bedouin camp, and showcase the authentic experiences we offer to our guests.
Your role will include photographing our traditional tents, daily activities, jeep tours, camel rides, and the unique cultural exchange between Bedouins and visitors. The images you create will help us share the beauty of Wadi Rum with the world and inspire travelers to experience it themselves.
In exchange, we provide free accommodation in our camp, delicious traditional meals, and the chance to join tours and adventures in the desert. You will live among local Bedouins, learn about their culture, and enjoy a truly immersive experience.
This program is perfect for photographers seeking to expand their portfolio while enjoying an unforgettable cultural adventure. If you love travel, storytelling, and photography, this is the ideal opportunity to combine all three in one of the most iconic desert landscapes on Earth.
