Summary
Episode 32 - Zach & Courtney talk about one of their favorite trips: Moab, Utah! They visit Arches National Park, Canyonlands National Park, Dead Horse Point State Park, and more! Zach used to photograph weddings and that’s how he ended up in Moab 3 years in a row. Courtney & Henry went, too, on the second year. On this episode they discuss their highlights from the trip, which (in addition to the parks, of course) included staying at Whispering Oaks Ranch in the La Sal Mountains. Zach & Courtney talk about the trip, life lessons they learned, and the photos Zach took along the way. “Photography is nothing–it's life that interests me.” - Henri Cartier-Bresson Index 0:00 - Intro: Does Google own my photo now?? 3:19 - How we started booking weddings in Moab 5:46 - Driving to Moab via Denver 7:55 - Every road in Moab felt like different terrain 10:18 - Some background on Arches, Canyonlands and Moab 17:44 - Getting married under Double Arch in Arches National Park 19:31 - Courtney & Henry visit Moab for the first time with Zach 24:23 - Favorite breakfast: Jailhouse Cafe 25:31 - Best fish tacos ever: Miguel’s Baja Grill 27:30 - Carrying a toddler through the National Parks 32:16 - It looks like you’re closer to the cliff’s edge than you are 36:14 - Moab wedding number 2 39:26 - Visiting Canyonlands National Park 42:10 - Finding the Petroglyphs 46:30 - A third wedding in Moab at Whispering Oaks Ranch 49:17 - A final photo at night on the La Sal Mountains Find Zach Website: https://zachdobson.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/zachdobsonphoto/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@zachdobsonphoto Threads: https://www.threads.com/@zachdobsonphoto Find Courtney Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/courtneymccracken_/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@happy_life_…
