Great tour! - Brandon was very knowledgeable of both the park and night time photography. He brought all accessories we needed and showed us how to adjust settings on our iPhones to take the best pictures! He contacted us the day of the tour and ensured we had no questions in advance for him. The tour itself was perfect and we had a great night…. We were even blessed with the Milky Way!

Learning how to take pictures in the dark was the best. I'm anxious to do more of night timephotose photo - Even though the moon was a little bright we got some good pictures and great information to take more in the future. Doing this tour with friends and experiencing it together was so special.

Would do it again in a heartbeat. - My husband and I went last night it was a highlight of our trip in Moab. Brandon was a thoughtful, knowledgeable guide who patiently guided & instructed Us middle-aged newbies to get great photos from my Nikon & my husband’s iPhone. Most importantly we enjoyed the beautiful Dark Sky. The wide angle lens rental & instruction just brought out even more detail to the photos. Thank you Brandon for a magical night. Kat & David

We hiked and took pictures of stars while learning how to take them. - I loved the views, and it was an amazing experience that made my birthday so much better! I love photography but this was something that made me realize just how much more I have to learn about it. I loved this experience and would definitely do it again if I had the chance!
