Thank you everyone for such an incredible day! Every year we say, “Best workshop ever,” and somehow each year it still feels true, this one was no exception. We’re always lucky to work with amazing models who are just as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside. And for some reason, we continue to attract the most talented photographers, whom we’re proud to call friends. Thank you all for making today so special!

The 8th Annual Valley of Fire Photo Experience

If you’re already in Vegas for WPPI, this is the don’t-miss event of the year for portrait photographers. We’ve intentionally designed this experience to line up perfectly with the end of the WPPI conference, making it easy to turn your inspiration into jaw-dropping portfolio images.
This is a fully permitted, full-day, bucket-list photography experience set inside one of the most visually stunning landscapes in the country. The Valley of Fire delivers epic color, texture, and scale—the kind of dramatic backdrops that instantly elevate your portrait portfolio and set your work apart.

Guided shooting
Iconic locations
Portfolio-worthy images all day long

If you want to walk away with images that stop the scroll and remind you why you picked up a camera in the first place, this is your moment.
