Day of Photography in Moab, Arches & Canyonlands

Colin helped improve my photography skills by explaining and then showing me how to do a thing or two.

Colin know the places to be to catch the best light and most interest. He helped with camera settings, not just aperture, speed, and iso, but also shooting mode, timing, and tripod use. Colin allowed enough time in each location to try a variety of angles and different shots. Colin also initiated a humorous photo aspect by positioning the participants to appear to be holding up rocks and arches in some photos.

Collin was great. Nice trip with good tips for taking pictures fun nice overview of the things to see

I am a beginner when it comes to using anything more than a point and shoot camera. I enjoy photographing landscapes, and wanted to learn more. Colin provided some great pointers and helped me learn how to use my camera better and compose great shots of some incredible natural scenery. I would recommend coming prepared with an understanding of how to make certain basic camera adjustments to aperture, shutter speed, and ISO, at a minimum. There were also more seasoned photographers in the group and it seemed like they were getting a lot out of the experience as well in terms of Colin’s location scouting - I'd say it’s good for all levels. Generally speaking, if you have limited time, it’s also a good way to see some highlights of three parks within a single day (though due to time constraints, none involving extensive hiking, so I went back and did some of those on my own - e.g., Delicate Arch). It is a long day but well worth it - you certainly get your money’s worth. Highly recommend the night session as well. The stars were incredibly visible after dark with very little light pollution.
