Utah is home to some of the most stunning and unusual landscapes in North America. Millions of years of erosion and upheaval have carved otherworldly scenes and surreal patterns that photographers dream about — dramatic river bends, towering buttes and mesas, sculpted badlands, intricate erosion patterns, and strikingly colored soils, all best captured from the air. Whether you’re after surreal abstract patterns or sweeping desert vistas, southeastern Utah doesn’t disappoint.
In the desert, light and shadow are what separate a good photo from a great one. We build our flying schedule around sunrise, sunset, and any other dramatic light that presents itself, since that’s when the desert’s colors are at their most vivid — from the striped, undulating badlands near Hanksville to the layered reds, oranges, and rust tones exposed in the canyon walls around Mexican Hat.
Our drone photography workshop is designed for pilots and photographers of all skill levels, with a low instructor-to-photographer ratio to ensure individual attention. If you’re just getting started, our experienced instructors will teach you to fly safely and help you capture amazing photos. If you’re already an experienced pilot, we’ll push you further with advanced techniques and flight modes.
