The only suggestion I have is to contact NM organizations who may have an interest or need for special images of a thing or an area. If they do, You may be able to factor that into your trip itinerary. To pay you for the images you will likely have to write the article too.

The chances are pretty slim, I admit, but you never know.

AAA of NM; New Mexico Magazine, etc

Looking at his posts and his work I am confident that he is no leg puller. He honestly believes that it's possible. Perhaps out of his own conviction he may succeed.

I don't think the OP is asking us to fund his trip but rather where he could ask the public to contribute, I assume he would give something of value back to contributors.
Now would you like a group of people to send you contributions in exchange for some photos?
IMHO it's something to consider, if nothing else it gets more people looking at your work.

Let me get this straight; you are asking folks here at the UHH to send you money so you may go to NM to take photos. Basically asking others to sponsor a vacation trip for someone else. Well heck, I've got better equipment, (D7200, D850, D500, 5D mk IV, 5DSr, 90D, Nikkor, Canon EF L, Sigma and Tamron lenses), and a fairly new AWD SUV that will make it cross country with no problem. I enjoy traveling and photography and I've been doing digital photography since 2000. Anyone who's willing to sponsor me to travel and take photos and videos, let me know, it would be greatly appreciated!

You definitely have better equipment and probably better judgment as well. A sponsored photo vacation, LOL.

I was going to make a "Sponsor my trip" post. I decided to wait a week or so until my "Sponsor my Z9" is fully funded.

I looked at a number of his UHH posted images. Some interesting ideas and compositions, but a lot of not fantastic and soft executions. And why NM? Not many water falls there. Should try Hawaii. Imagine sponsored Maui Wowee.

I can certainly see why he would want to go to NM and photograph the Bisti/De-Na-Zin wilderness NP. It is absolutely unimaginable. Far stranger than Death Valley, Trona Pinnacles, Red Rock Canyon CA, Anza Badlands CA all put together. If I do ever visit my friend who moved to El Rito, NM from Pasadena, CA, I will definitely want to go to that area! But I expect to pay for my own trip and should be able to afford it.

My take on his post was not that he is asking Hoggers for money, but asking for leads to businesses that might sponsor him.

I agree. Even state park services or Navajo Nation.
