Our Trip to Arizona

After our fabulous night in Sin City, we got to head east to meet up with Evan's parents in Flagstaff, AZ. They rented a cabin there and it was a ton of fun to explore a new environment. We got to go hiking a little on our own and then we drove with the family to Slide Rock park which was a complete blast and do some more hiking in the forest. The creeks were so beautiful and we did a lot of drinking from them- as I tend to trust fast moving river water over the Floridian tap variety. Something about sipping water right from nature really makes me feel free. And of course through the whole trip we had our equipment in tow. So here are some of the shots I wanted to share.

An awesome look at the water pooling at Slide Rock Park, the colors really looked like that



This was my must take shot of the trip, cracked earth was on my photography bucket list. Check!



We took this awesome Jeep tour in Sedona at sunset and this is our favorite shot of the whole trip



After a few nights in Flagstaff we drove up to the Grand Canyon. I've been out west tons of times but this was our first time seeing the Grand Canyon and it took my breath away.



Here is my Ansel Adams-esque shot



And the thing that totally blew my mind was being able to see all the stars and constellations so clearly. I'm so used to light pollution and the nights in the Grand Canyon were so peaceful. Can you see the Big Dipper?
