Great Rail Journeys
Moments That Last a Lifetime
For The Telegraph’s Moments That Last a Lifetime branded content series with Great Rail Journeys, I led the video and photography production, shaping the creative development and overseeing every aspect of the shoots.
The hero film followed Martin and Shirlie Kemp as they explored the Basque Country, capturing the local cuisine, culture and memorable experiences that make escorted rail travel so unique.
Alongside the hero content featuring the Kemps, we produced a series of photography-led stories exploring Great Rail Journeys destinations around the world. Race Across the World favourites Stephen and Viv cruised along the Rhine, travel writer Robin McKelvie explored the Italian Lakes, while Tracey Davies returned to India, revisiting a country she had first discovered during her backpacking days.
