We never expected Morocco to show us so much contrasting beauty and to give us so many incredible memories. (And we were only there 10 days!)
Here are some of our favorite pictures.
Enjoy!

Pete – these are incredible. Seriously, you should be contacting, no wait, the tourist industry of Morocco should be contacting YOU to use your photos.
Really enjoying photography, aren’t ya? :
Oh yes, had lots of fun in Morocco with the camera. I still have so much more to learn and am just getting started. 🙂
Oh geez. I just so in awe of these photos. I thought I was learning and getting better at photography but I am light years behind you. These pics are just amazing.
The last three are my favorites!
Cheers Amanda, the Sahara was my favorite too 🙂
WOW, these are amazing you sure have a gift!!!
Thanks Fiona. It has taken a long time to learn, and we’re still learning every day we take the camera out…
Dang, that last one looks EXACTLY like a postcard you’d find in a tourist shop. This series rocks.
Cheers Christy!!
Got some great shots there! The last two are fantastic!! Good job guys!
Thanks so much!! 🙂
What a clever idea to make YOUR photos look like real postcards. At first, I momentarily thought they WERE postcards (that you’d bought and scanned.) Silly me – you truly have a great “eye”!
Haha, I was wondering if people would think that 🙂 Thanks Dyanne
What a neat place. I’ve already mentioned how much I like the postcard idea. Morocco is on our list of possibles for this year. Probably only a week, but it looks amazing.
It is quite a unique country, I had no idea how different the landscapes could be. There is so much you can do in a week. Enjoy!

Wow these photos are incredible! This is the first time I’ve been to your website and I think I’m going to check out more of your ‘postcard’ pictures.
Hard to pick a favourite as they’re all good, but I love the effects on the ‘Djemaa-El-Fna’ postcard.
Welcome Elouise and thank you 🙂 I really like long shutter shots too and how the lights curve around the horse and cart in this one. Thanks again for the comment!
Wow guys, I think these photos are some of your best yet! You’re definitely selling me on Morocco – a little beach time in Essaouira and then a camel ride through the desert sounds perfect.
Thanks Emily! Sounds like the perfect itinerary 😉
Love these photos. Morocco has been on my travel radar since I was about five, and these postcards just make me want to go there right away.
Very nice pics, really like the footsteps in the sand.
Amazing. These are absolutely gorgeous. I love the camel shot! And … when are you getting that new camera? I hear this one calling my name and an international meeting to come and get it from you. 😉
Fantastic photos! Already looking forward to the ones from NYC 🙂
Some really excellent shots here, Morocco looks wonderfully photogenic!
Gorgeous photos! I especially loved the one of the camel
Great photos! Morocco must be a fantastic place to travel…looks like you could have enjoyed more than 10 days.
There were some towns we missed, so definitely would love to go back someday.
Gorgeous! Love these – especially the girl in front of the market stand of spices
Thanks Andrea! I think that one is my favorite too…
The Sahara picture is amazing. Morocco seems like such a special, unique place.
Thank you! The Sahara was our favorite part, quite amazing.
Love these! Every one of these photos is stunning and you really seem to capture Morocco! I’ve been wanting to go there and now I do even more!
These are amazing. What the heck is your secret? I am thoroughly impressed!
Haha! No big secrets, just a camera and photoshop. 🙂
Love these! And what a great idea putting them into post cards. We haven’t been to Morocco yet, but your photos are moving it higher on our list. For some reason, we keep putting it on the backburner. Maybe we should think again.
Thanks Deb! I can imagine your list of places to go is long and wide! But yes, make sure Morocco is on there! 🙂
Amazing photographs! You are able to capture such beautiful moments with your postcard series. Now, I want to go to Morocco even more!
Superb works and a great eye for photography…you should consider going commercial with yours pics…well done Pete
Thank you! All our photos are open for purchase at anytime…now to find some buyers! 🙂
Loooooove the pictures!
I was wondering: what do you think of Morocco when it comes to ‘women friendlyness’?
I’ve heard from several girls that, especially in the cities, actually, they didn’t really feel at ease and had been called not so pleasant things walking around on the streets there.
It’s something that’s holding me back from visiting what looks like a beautiful country.
In all honesty Sofie, I wouldn’t travel there on my own. There are times that I felt quite uncomfortable, even when I was on Pete’s arm. The men were not shy to make some pretty bold comments, and stare relentlessly. I don’t know that you would ever be in any real danger, but if that makes you uncomfortable, then I would be wary of trying to make the trip alone.
Yeah, that’s what I’ve heard as well of a female friend who traveled there with her boyfriend. I wouldn’t feel comfortable and I know Boyfriend wouldn’t accept anyone making remarks…
I’m trying to help a poor Moroccan woman out by doing research on how to market her photos of Morocco for postcards and calendars and ran across your page from a search engine link. Your pictures are wonderful and I thought they were pictures of actual postcards that you posted!. You might want to check out zazzle.com. or a similar site where customers can order your photos to be made into mugs, postcards, posters etc.
