Hi, I’m Anna
I’m an artist and photographer with a passion for traveling. I’m always smiling and laughing (trail name is Giggles). We both wear many hats at Leave The Map but my expertise are editing our travel photos from the front seat of our van, managing our social media pages, and being the Photoshop Queen - You may also know me as annamcnaughty.
Favorite thing about travel: Waking up in a new place every day with no schedule or routine. As well as meeting new people and hearing their stories.
Favorite road meal: Rocky Mountain Mac & Cheese (Tuna in mac & cheese - I know it sounds gross but its amazing!)
Favorite thing about one another: James’ passion for every project that we take on and his contagious love for life. and his dad jokes!
If I could do one thing every day it would be: Hike and explore a good swimming hole or on a lazy day, draw and nap in the sun with the van doors open.
Favorite road song that I like to sing at the top of my lungs: Higher Love - Steve Winwood and anything Spice Girls or 90s!!
When I’m bored I: Make macrame, paint, read, and pull tarot cards for anyone that will listen!
Hi, I’m James
I’m a director and photographer with a passion for traveling and telling compelling stories. My expertise is all things video and photography and my passion is in creating timeless images that make you feel immersed in a place with us!
Favorite thing about travel: Meeting new people and experiencing different cultures. I find most inspiration in my work when we’re out on the road.
Favorite road meal: Breakfast of any kind and a hot cup of pour over coffee. I look forward to mornings in the van just so I can make a fresh cup!
Favorite thing about one another: Anna’s infectious laugh and smile. She is my co-pilot on the road and in business and her creativity towards her work makes her one-of-a-kind.
If I could do one thing every day it would be: Fly fish beautiful rivers and spend the evening playing guitar and cooking in front of a fire.
Favorite road song that I like to sing at the top of my lungs: If I’m feelin’ myself it’s Juicy by Notorious B.I.G if it’s just a casual singalong Wagon Wheel all day.
When I’m bored I: Binge eat Cheetos and chewy snacks in the van. I also do a lot of reading when I’m not eating Cheetos.
