Our story
A vision and purpose shaped by who we are
In 2007, two outdoorsy photo enthusiasts, Coreena and Roy, met for the first time, beginning their journey to discover their shared and compatible interests.
It didn’t take long for them to find common ground in their love for photography, travel, hiking, mountain biking, and other outdoor activities (and of course their commitment to each other 😉). An engaging connection evolved and solidified their bond, which has continually developed over time. When it comes to photography, a defining moment early in their relationship was when Roy handed Coreena his then camera, a Canon 20D DSLR, to ‘borrow’. This gave Roy the perfect excuse to upgrade to a newer camera model – and was a gesture that truly sealed the deal! Did Coreena return the borrowed camera? Well, you can likely guess the answer to this question.
A couple of years, and many adventures later, a vision was born to share their passion for photography and the outdoors with others, through interactive, nature-based travel and photography experiences.
​
While on a hike in Patagonia (with their cameras, of course) a sudden realisation struck; they were ‘shutterbugs on walkabout’! Captivated by this thought, their business name was chosen, right there and then!
​

Coreena was very friendly and professional. She worked with us to tailor the day to our liking. From pickup in the morning, ferry arrangements, Island tour and photography advice to drop off in the evening - all went perfectly. I recommend Shutterbug Walkabouts to anyone wanting to experience some of Tassie's wonderful nature, while taking a few photos along the way, supported by a friendly professional team.
