"Hi, I'm Rebecca Guenther with www.m5a1photography.com and I'm going to talk to you about how to become a travel photographer. What you want to do if you're interested in becoming a travel photographer is you want to take pictures while you're on your travels, but you also want to take pictures around where you live. You want to show you have a good eye for capturing what is going on in the world around you, and making uninteresting things look interesting. Once you have enough work put together to form a portfolio that is cohesive, you want to go to magazines that are travel magazines, and you want to show them your work and say I'm interested in photographing for you and becoming a travel photographer for you. Hopefully, they will like your work enough that they will hire you on to be their travel photographer, and then you will get paid to travel around the world and take photographs for them. And, that is how you become a travel photographer."
