PHOTOGRAPHY & TRAVEL

PAMELA GOODYER’S PHOTOGRAPHY MAGAZINE

Pamela Goodyer strides with purpose, her presence alive with ambition and intensity. Her aura of raw ambition and passion for photography, blazing like a star in the night sky, ignites creativity among her peers. Her love for her art is remarkable, burning more brightly in the room; she is an unstoppable force that exudes creativity with every step she takes, a marked presence among some of the most outstanding photographers ever known.

You can experience the depths of my journeys through this magazine, an accumulation of a decade and a half’s worth of globetrotting, transformed into a guide for photographers and adventurers alike. I created the magazine after my external hard drive accumulated over 100,000 images from years of travel.

I lost my mother, leaving me with a gaping hole in my life. My mother often said, “Work on your photography magazine – it will make you feel better.” But it felt wrong to try to find joy without my mom by my side anymore. Despite the intense pain, I knew that was exactly what my mother wanted for me. So, I set out to create something beautiful to distract me from the tragedy, as my mom taught me in her final days, a way to not dwell on the negative and focus instead on things that made me happy and fulfilled.

GRATITUDE FROM GRIEF

I dove deep into art to escape my emotional pain and found even more new creativity. I believe my mom channels as she connects to the other side. My mother travels everywhere with me and looks over me, keeping me safe. My mother always worried about me traveling alone. I always had to call my mom when I returned home so she wouldn’t worry anymore. I feel her presence and guidance while traveling alone to outlying lands.

With a lot of free time and no children, I create this photography magazine and my art in my spare time. I will retire and travel the world someday, taking pictures for this photography magazine full-time. I have another passion that consumes my hours during the week: I love being an investigator with a keen eye for detail.

My detective-like mind is a blessing in my work as an investigator and photographer. I yearned to uncover the secrets hidden in every corner of the world, and what better way to do that than with my camera in hand? My art transports readers to far-off places, as if they were there. My pictures adorn the pages of magazines seen worldwide, offering viewers a glimpse into lands and worlds previously unknown to them.

My photos speak a thousand words, inviting others to travel with me wherever the camera points – a journey that no map could ever contain. I have shared these secrets through the magazine, unlocking new doors into places never before seen.

In my photography magazine, you will find the images. I hope these vivid details leap off the page and grab your soul, taking you on a journey that will linger in your heart long after you finish reading. I primarily aim to inspire you to explore the incredible photo locations featured in Photography Magazine Extra and create award-winning photography.

TRAVEL AND EXPLORATION  

Many desire the travel experience, and with my camera, a passion ignites and then takes on a life of its own. The desire to document the world’s beauty becomes an obsession, a power that some decide to pursue at all costs. The desire to explore different landscapes can become an integral part of your journey. Travel is a way to see the world. Here in our magazine, we guide you, showing you areas to explore, when to travel, how to travel, and where to eat and stay.

PAMELA GOODYER’S LATEST BOOK

The book has incredible images and focuses on using art as a healing tool to overcome grief and trauma.

Inspired by grief and heartache, and created through a desire to find peace within, the book is a dazzling collection of full-color photographs, creative storytelling, and mystical imagery. ‘My works exude vibrancy, displaying spectacular angles and bold colors. The book is about creating art and my journey to overcome obstacles, struggle through grief, and overcome heartache.’

‘My life has been filled with many heartbreaking tragedies, and I take my experience and investigative abilities to guide others in recovering from emotional pain. I have had bones broken in 36 places in my face, and the story is in the book, along with touching on several other traumas, but most importantly, how I have overcome them.”

BETRAYED BY BEST FRIEND AND TRAUMA IN LIFE

Not all wounds to the spirit arrive with thunder. When someone you’ve called a “best-friend” that you absolutely adored betrays that sacred trust—the divine light within you dims. Such quiet devastation leaves the soul questioning not just human connection, but its own capacity to recognize truth in this life. My book explores fraud and deception through real-life experiences, explaining how the brain can lead us astray when conducting business with someone from our own social group. It goes into the science behind it, the spirituality, and how to use Transcendent Photography to recover from such devastation.

I believe the universe has planted within our souls a natural compass that points toward compassion. When I sit quietly with myself, I can feel this ancient wisdom—this knowing that we were designed to shelter one another, to speak truth, to honor the light in each person we meet.

Honor thy friend, neighbor and stranger as thyself—these words echo across generations, reminding us of our shared humanity. When we forget this fundamental truth, we drift into shadows where manipulation and betrayal seem acceptable. It’s only when we disconnect from this sacred inner guidance that we begin to accept deception and selfishness as normal ways of being.

This recent betrayal shattered my foundation, teaching me a painful truth: those of us who extend our hands in compassion often become targets. Our desire to heal the world sometimes blinds us to the predators lurking in our midst. We must nurture our giving hearts while keeping our eyes wide open. I have now accepted I cannot heal the world, I can only live my best life, and touch as many lives in a positive way as the powers that be see fit.”

These principles I discuss in the book I am writing are not merely how I live; it is how I honor the divine light that connects us all. Within the pages, these truths shimmer beneath each photograph—a testament to the light I still choose to see in our broken, beautiful world.

My many emotional tragedies are overcome through these works, creating vibrant images that heal my heart and soul. I hope my book helps you heal yours, too.
