A professional guide and a driver who knows these canyons in the dark. A professional photographer, with a briefing beforehand to plan every detail of the excursion. Cameras, tripods and lenses if they are needed. Hot food and drinks. Warm layers, chairs and blankets. Red headlamps for everyone.

If you have never photographed at night, we will set the camera up with you, explain what every setting is doing and why, and stay beside you until you are working on your own. Nobody here will make you feel slow. Most of our guests take their first real night photograph on an expedition like this one.

If you shoot professionally, this is the site where distance works in your favour: ridges, canyon walls and open salt flats sit within minutes of each other, so a single night can hold three completely different compositions. We give you the site, the hour, the moon and the sky reading, and then leave you to work.
