Quick Thoughts
Arizona is a roadtripping photographer’s dream destination, as one hops from panoramic desert terrains and jaw-dropping canyons, to starlit nights and lush forests, all within a day’s drive. For that reason, a couple buddies and I decided to roadtrip through northern Arizona. I spent my entire childhood in the state, but it took me leaving to realize how stunning & diverse Arizona truly is. Come visit, you won’t regret it!
Key Highlights

Driving aimlessly through Monument Valley bordering the Arizona-Utah state line.
Things to Know
I went right around Christmas time which means you beat the crowds, but make sure to bring a thick jacket. Northern Arizona gets quite chilly!
Don’t bring a drone - they’re not allowed in the national parks (as of this writing). It didn’t stop some folks from flying them around Horseshoe Bend, but take my advice: don’t be That Guy. No one likes That Guy. That Guy’s mother doesn’t even like That Guy.
