TOURISM & PHOTOGRAPHY

Thursday 26^th November 2009, University of Surrey, Guildford

With digital cameras on every traveller’s check list, everyone likes to consider themselves a bit of a travel photographer. Taking photographs of indigenous people may provide fond memories of your adventures, but have you ever thought about the consequences of taking these photos? Dr Caroline Scarles will present her research from a recent trip to Peru on how taking photographs of locals affects their lives. The event will also look at the role magazines and guide books play in the way we take our holiday snaps, and how they guide our decision process when booking a holiday.
