Moab Moon Mission: September 24th, 2026
Join me on an epic moonscape photography adventure! I do all the planning for a thrilling moon shoot, you come along for the ride! I’ll be happy to show you my planning techniques, and teach you everything you need to know to come away with beautiful photos of the full moon rising through a natural arch in Arches National Park.
Duration:
2-3 hours, with pickup at 5:00PM.
What’s Included:
•Transportation to and from our shooting location. I’ll pick you up from your place of lodging in Moab or Spanish Valley, or if your lodging is elsewhere we’ll arrange for meetup\pickup spot in town.
•Photography instruction and guidance in the field, including:
-Planning apps and how to use them to find and plan photos with precision.
-Choosing the best camera settings based on lighting and other conditions to get the best exposure possible.
-I’ll be sharing knowledge and tips about getting the most out of a moon shoot, and will be able to answer any questions you have along the way.
What to bring:
•Camera with recommended lens 300mm or greater.
•Tripod
•Remote shutter not required but is a bonus
Refunds, Cancellations, and Disclaimers:
Cancellations made at least 2 days (48 hours) in advance of the Moon Mission will receive a full refund, minus a 7% processing fee. Cancellations made within 48 hours of the trip will receive a 50% refund, minus a 7% processing fee.
Fortunately, we have clear skies most of the time in Moab, however in the case of a crazy storm, the trip could be canceled, in which case a full refund would be given. If we arrive at the scene and the moon is not visible due to clouds, you will have 2 options:
Option 1) You can join any future moon missions at no additional cost until the moon is visible.
Option 2) You can get a partial refund of 20% of the trip ($100)
I cannot be responsible for wind, weather, rain, heat, or other unforeseen circumstances. I reserve the right to change locations, cancel, or reschedule trips due to unsafe or extreme conditions.
Note that the image presented here is a composite for concept only, provided purely to give an idea of the approximate scale of the moon within the arch for our alignment. Photos will appear differently due to a variety of factors such as different angle and distance, different equipment, and lighting will depend on the conditions at the time. Also there are often crowds of visitors in and around the arch and we have no way of controlling that.
*$500 (1 photographer at $320, 2nd photographer at $180)
