Seattle Dredge is an astonishing travel photographer. Seattle started traveling at the age of 17, she went to Italy for her first trip. Seattle grew up in a small town near Ontario, and has lived in Canada her whole life. She traveled by herself so that she could have an actual time alone to adventure. Ever since her childhood, she has been a fan of travel. She had posters of maps and travel destinations all over her walls. She also studied the distances from destination to destination. Overall, Seattle had a pretty good childhood in Ontario,CA, where she learned that she was interested in traveling.
She mostly travels alone or with her boyfriend Wade, she also likes to travel with friends when she gets the chance. For example, she is going to The Philippines in march. She is going to the Palawan region which is the largest province in the Philippines. Palawan is also known as “The Last Frontier” because of its lack of civilization, most of the population is Muslim or Roman Catholic. This time she is traveling with Wade, (I'm hoping to see some new pictures).
Seattle saved her money up until she was 17, she didn't spend money on entertainment or tech. Now she partners with travel agencies to pay for her travel in return of photos. These agencies also pay her so she is still working (pretty cool job). Seattle now pays and plans for her own adventures. For example, she is going to the Philippines on her own money and plans. She also uses her money to buy new cameras and other equipment that goes with her job.
