It is, the images are all “courtesy of Apple.” Why else would a pro photographer with good gear travel to cool places with professional lighting equipment and then take the photo with an iPhone?
Yeah, if he just had decided to make to photographs of those places he would have avoided the trouble of carrying tripod and others gear used for those light paint shot. Instead he would have just hiked with a simple mirrorless camera and take 1/10th of the time to shoot with more details. Back at home, he would have spent half as much time in post-processing with the shots still looking better (not washed-up dark shot over corrected for denoising).
But, (there is always a but) he would be a few hundred K poorer so it doesn't matter to him in the end. Now he has enough money to go take all the real shots he wants...

It presents work commissioned by Apple. So it is more like an advertorial.
