A dobsonian is a great choice and the collapsible version makes it a bit easier to transport.

Visual and photography are really 2 separate beasts in my opinion requiring different set ups.

Having said that you'll be able to do some afocal work with a dob (holding the camera up to the eyepiece) and you can get pretty good results of the moon.

Spend $500-$600 on the scope and maybe splash out on a good eyepiece
