SOUTHERN UTAH FALL 2023
Southern Utah is a land of imagination. With a higher density of sandstone than anywhere else in the world, the landscape abounds with hoodoos over fifty feet tall capped by impossibly balanced boulders, and canyons so tight that the floor has never seen direct sunlight. Colors swirl and tumble in a cacophony of textures and shapes that rise from the ground and reach to the sky. Looking to the plateaus, a series of solitary snow-capped peaks watch over the scene.
The question in this area is not what to photograph, it's what not to photograph.
Workshop Philosophy
I view photography as an exploration. Each new storm, each new moonrise, each new early snow is an opportunity to tell the story of our adventure with a unique vision. I want you to experience the heat, the cold, the explosions of light, the screaming joy of capturing the perfect scene when the final gasp of the sun's red breath heats a peak just right - or when the lightning we've been chasing for days lashes across a dark escarpment, lighting hoodoos and monuments as few have ever seen. When you're done, I want you to know that you have created something that is entirely yours.
