Join us on a captivating 4 night photographic expedition that immerses you in the rich tapestry of Native American culture and landscapes like never before. 

You are invited to embark on this unique Navajo-guided adventure, where you will have the opportunity to capture stunning images of the night sky above the pristine and restricted areas of Monument Valley.  Experience firsthand the breathtaking and unspoiled allure of Navajo territory, and let the magic of the night inspire your creativity.

Monument Valley stands as one of the most awe-inspiring and breathtaking locations on our planet. This remarkable valley features towering sandstone formations that reach heights of up to 1,000 feet above the desert floor, creating a stunning visual spectacle.

Surrounding these majestic rock pinnacles are vast expanses of mesas, buttes, arches, and windswept sand, all contributing to a landscape that captivates not only with its beauty but also with its sheer scale.

During our unforgettable photographic adventure in Monument Valley, we will guide you through the art of capturing the stunning Milky Way, employing techniques such as low-level light painting and an introduction to post-processing methods.

Over the course of 4 nights, you will embark on an incredible journey through this iconic landscape, accompanied by a knowledgeable local Navajo guide who will share the hidden gems of the area and provide insights into the rich traditions of the Navajo people.

This is primarily a photography trip. We will be shooting some days from before sunrise until after sunset. Some nights, we may be out in the desert until after midnight photographing the stars. At each carefully chosen location, there will be plenty of time to set up your tripod, compose your shots and get in some quality photography. On most days, we will come back to the hotel mid-day to rest up and edit images.

The weather in Monument Valley and the surrounding desert areas is relatively mild in May, with average highs in the 70’s and lows in the 50’s. However, at an elevation of 5,000-6,000ft above sea level, the sun can be very intense and dehydration can happen quickly. It is very important to drink lots of water, wear sunscreen, and limit sun exposure during the hottest parts of the day.
