Utah Road Trip-January 18-22, 2026
Utah Road Trip-January 18-22, 2026
For this road trip I’d like to further explore the area of southeast Utah, more specifically Factory Butte and surrounding areas. Last year I visited the butte area and thought the entire trip was amazing. I also thought that there was so much more to explore, but I didn’t have the chance. I am going back again for my third visit and taking 8 clients.
Trip start date: January 18th (we leave on the 22nd) 8 photo sessions.
During this trip we will drive to many of the BLM areas and parks in the area. Everyone will be responsible for driving their own car, park fees, meals and lodging. Before each shoot, I will go over gear selection, area specifics, drive times, directions, etc. Everyone will follow me to each shooting location unless you decide to venture out on your own. There is so much to explore in this area. Drones are welcomed at a lot of our shooting areas, but not absolutely necessary if you don’t have one.
The Utah Badlands feature some of the most distinctive rock formations in the world. From towering spires to intricate hoodoos, these natural wonders are a testament to millions of years of geological history. This area is also unique in that there are so many completely different areas of interest within driving range. With the myriad of formations and patterns, the photographic opportunities are endless. We will go out for sunrise and sunset daily, capturing pockets of light and color whenever possible. Our goal is to photograph and see as much of the area as possible during our 5 night adventure.
