EF Travel Content
EF Educational Tours and EF Explore America provide professionally guided educational travel experiences for middle school to high school age students with their teachers. These tours are designed to connect classroom learning with real-world experiences, helping participants develop cultural understanding, empathy, and independence. EF offers a wide range of tours domestically and internationally. I art directed multiple photo and video shoots where we shadowed travelers on these tours to capture the tour experience as well as the partners we work with.
Washington, D.C.
I traveled with our photo and video team to document a class of high school students from Chicago touring Washington, D.C. with EF Tours. We caputred a few key stories and highlighted our partners along the way.
History in the making | Ben’s Chili Bowl
Ben’s Chili Bowl, a family owned and operated restaurant, is a landmark in the heart of Washington, D.C. EF travelers are given the opportunity to taste world-famous half smokes and learn about this Black-owned business that has survived for decades despite the odds.
We created a video and blog piece to highlight this iconic institution & the partnership between Ben’s and EF.
