Hi. I'm Heather
Photographer || Mentor || Adventurer
A Parallax Life
Hey there! Parallax Life is a travel photography blog by Heather McKay and this is where I share my journey on how I got so burned out as a photographer that I learned how to harness my business so I can travel more. Now, I work mostly remotely from wherever I want.
I’m passionate about empowering photographers on running a profitable photography business through selling products and showing others how to use personal and business spending to travel the world.
Don’t wait for “some day” to take that big, dream trip! It’s easier than you think.
You're Ready to Travel More, Take Better Photos, and enjoy the freedom of going on new adventures.
Life is short. Live and Work Boldly.
I’m a nomadic business mentor for creatives who struggle to sell products. They know they need to value their time and work by offering products but worry customers only want digital files. I help them confidently attract the right clients so they can increase their sales.
Everyone claims they want to travel more, but they don’t have the time or money to do their big bucket-list trip. You don’t have to wait for “one day.” With the power of points and miles, one day can be today.
I help people just like you learn to travel hack their way around the world using everyday spending and I share my own adventures right here on the blog.
