Sunset and Night Photography in Arches National Park

Overview

We will visit at least four locations for photography in iconic Arches National Park for the afternoon golden hour and sunset. I have traveled extensively in search of amazing photographic locations, and it is hard to beat Arches National Park for the wide variety of photographic locations, and it is an official international Dark Skies park. During the busy season, I will lead the tour to locations that are less well known but still spectacular.

I will show you great locations, and make suggestions on composition and subject matter. I can even help you with your camera settings if you are a beginner. After sunset. we will take a brief break for a picnic and go over camera settings for night photography while we wait for the Milky Way to emerge. (Note: in April & May, the Milky Way does not appear until after midnight, so we will return to Moab after sunset, and head back out late at night. A wee hours tour is available as a standalone tour during this time).

For my wife & I, photography is a sporadic hobby that enriches our vacations. Although we have taken photography classes before this is the 1st time we've incorporated a photo tour as an activity. It was so successful that now I want to take one of Colin's workshops. At our next locale, we incorporated what we learned to take more night stargazing photos!

Colin was very knowledgeable and patient. He even lent me one of his lens because mine didn't work well for night photography. I would recommend Rock Light Photo Tours to anyone who wants to take their night time photography to the next level.

Did a sunset and night photography tour with Colin in Arches National Park, and it did not disappoint! Colin was a fantastic guide! He gave us a tour of some of the highlights of Arches, and then took us to the best spots to capture the sunset. When it came to the night photography, he knew so much about all the various cameras our group had, and was so helpful in making sure we got great shots of the rocks and milky ways. Would highly recommend booking with him! You're guarenteed to get amazing shots!
