Outdoor Lifestyle Photography at Lake Powell, Utah
End of September I headed to Lake Powell to do some paddling and some outdoor lifestyle photography for a few commercial clients. A few friends, a film camera, and a bunch of product were loaded into kayaks for a multi-day kayak camping trip. We had heard so much, received tips from friends who knew the area like the back of their hands, and headed out.
I had never been to Lake Powell before, and I get it. I get why friends who live here or have moved away miss this place. I now understand the obsession with the blue waters and red rocks. The houseboats were a bit much for the kayaks, but being able to camp on any patch of sand or rock and ample spots to climb and then jump into the lake make it worth every wake. The warmth of the sun in early fall, just as welcomed as it will be come Spring.
Below is a sample of images taken at Lake Powell for a few clients including Igloo Coolers, Hanz, and ORU Kayak. It was a great trip, a big learning experience, and truly tested my technical kayaking skills loading up a boat and then strapping the big tan cooler to the top!
