My favorite time of year to capture the majesty of the Grand Canyon is the summer monsoon, also known as the Southwest or North American monsoon. Why is the monsoon my favorite time of year to photograph the Grand Canyon? Simple, because magic happens during the monsoon...
After a slow start to the 2023-2024 winter season, the weather finally changed and became more winter-like in January. My annual winter workshop at the Grand Canyon was held in January of this year, and we were blessed with a great display of light and color on the last evening of the workshop...
I have exciting news to share! My photo Magic at Mohave is on the cover of the January 2024 issue of Arizona Highways Magazine! In addition to the cover, I have seven more photographs in this issue, including a 2-page spread and several full-page images...
It has been another great year photographing monsoon storms, rainbows, and light at the Grand Canyon.
