Immerse yourself in the breathtaking beauty of the Southwest with this five-day photography workshop, where we’ll explore Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon, Antelope Canyon, and Horseshoe Bend! Designed for photographers of all skill levels, this hands-on adventure combines the best of landscape and night sky photography. Each day, we’ll capture iconic vistas, unique rock formations, and sweeping canyon views, mastering techniques for dynamic compositions and natural light.
Our days start with sunrise shoots, exploring the dramatic colors of red rock landscapes, and learning how to harness early morning light. Throughout the afternoons, we’ll dive into the technical aspects of landscape photography, discussing composition, exposure, and using the natural shapes of the land to create compelling photos. In the evenings, we’ll gather for sunset sessions, followed by guided night sky photography under the Southwest's stunningly clear, star-filled skies. You’ll gain skills in capturing the Milky Way, long exposures, and how to work with the low light of the desert night.
From the towering cliffs of Zion to the surreal spires of Bryce, the magical colors of Antelope Canyon, and the vast bend of the Colorado River at Horseshoe Bend, each day offers new sights and challenges. Along the way, you’ll receive one-on-one guidance, group feedback sessions, and tips for post-processing to bring out the beauty of your shots. Join us for an unforgettable five days filled with adventure, learning, and inspiring landscapes that will transform your photography!
