About Me

Hi, I’m Collin —

— the person behind The Scenic South, which began in March 2025 as a personal challenge to experience Southern travel, one scenic stop at a time.

Capturing the feeling of place

Content Creation & Visual Storytelling

Content creation and visual storytelling is at the heart of The Scenic South. Each image and video is designed to capture not just how a place looks, but how it feels to be there in that moment.

Where stays become content

Hotel, Cabin & Airbnb Stays

I partner with hotels, cabins, and AirBNB hosts to create visual content in exchange for stays.

Destination Partnerships

Tourism & Brand Partnerships

I partner with tourism boards and local organizations to highlight destinations. Each collaboration is focused on showcasing what makes a place worth visiting and sharing it in an authentic way.

The story behind the storefront

Local Business Collaborations

I work with local businesses to tell the story behind what they do and why they do it. Through aesthetic, intentional content, I highlight their space, products, and people in a way that feels authentic and engaging. The goal is to help each business connect with its community and attract new audiences through visual storytelling.

Photography

I offer street, nature, landscape, and portrait photography across the South. My focus is honest storytelling through light moments and atmosphere. Each image is capture to reflect how a place or person truly feels not just how it looks.

Authentic creator partnerships

Content Creator Collaborations

I value collaborations with content creators of all sizes who share a passion for authentic storytelling. I'm based in the Chattanooga area and enjoy connecting with like minded creatives across the South. The focus is on building genuine relationships and creating meaning content together.

Where food meets storytelling

Restaurant Features & Reviews

I feature and review restaurants ranging from small local mom and pop spots to national brands. I especially highlight minority owned and local businesses to help share their story and reach. Each feature focuses on the experience atmosphere and what makes the food worth memorizing.

Built for Southern community

Community Feature #TheScenicSouth

The Scenic South is more than my content. It is a platform for anyone sharing moments across the South. I encourage others to use the hashtag so their stories can become part of a larger, collective view of the region. The goal is to build a shared space that highlights the beauty, people, and experiences of everyday life.

Fundraising

I sponsor a 12-year old boy in the Philippines named Ra, through Compassion International. I actively fundraise through GoFundMe to help provide extra financial support and gifts for him and his family. The goal is to continue supporting him consistently to help improve his quality of life and help him escape poverty.
