Day of Photography in Moab, Arches & Canyonlands

Overview
We will visit at least two world class locations for photography in Utah's Canyonlands in the morning (sunrise), as well as several great spots in iconic Arches National Park in the afternoon (sunset). I have traveled extensively in search of amazing photographic locations, and it is hard to beat Arches, Dead Horse Point and the Islands in the Sky district of Canyonlands National Park.

I will show you great locations, and make suggestions on photographic composition and subject matter. I can even help you with your camera settings if you are a beginner. We will take a break for lunch (not included) during the middle of the day when the light is not as good.

Our day with Colin of Rock Light Photos was wonderful! We captured amazing sunrise photos in Dead Horse Point and the gorgeous orange glow on Mesa Arch in Canyonlands. The early morning views at both locations are a must see! Colin also took us to photograph several rock art panels at Sego Canyon. This experience of seeing three different periods of petroglyphs and pictographs all in one area was fantastic. He knew just where to take us. He was very friendly and easy going. Colin was very knowledgeable of the entire area and took us to great photography locations. He also took us to several locations in the Arches for late afternoon and beautiful sunset photos. I would definitely do another trip with him! The pricing was very reasonable and we covered a lot of area. It was well worth it.

Prompt friendly service. Very knowledgeable and experienced in the area and photography. Colin gave us great spots to take great pictures with lots of options in each venue we stopped. I would do it again.

We had an informative hummer guide for a day of riding the back roads of Canyonlands and Arches. Fun, not for the faint hearted!

While I appreciate the 5 stars, this review should have been for another company. No gas-guzzling Hummers on Rock Light Photo Tours! Just main park roads and photo expertise!
