On the last morning of our trip to Vegas we headed out to Red Rock Canyon for a sunrise hike. Do you remember how we do a New Hampshire Hut-to-Hut hike every summer? Well it’s Zan’s uncle Tim who organized that every year and it was Zan’s uncle Tim who was in Vegas at the very same time we were. Hiking is Tim’s favorite way to exercise and we were happy to tag along. Luckies!
It is so nice to have family in a faraway place while you’re traveling. We were able to see a lot of family on this trip (people we don’t often see AND people we do!) and it was just the best. Tim knew a just-right trail that was perfect timing for our morning. We got the the Canyon just as the sun was making it’s mark against the sky and we reached the summit of our hike while the light was golden and gorgeous…
So beautiful! Hands down one of the highlights of our whole trip.
I found your blog only recently, but I`m already a huge fan! You`re pictures are always soo beautiful! :) May I ask you how you edit them?
Love, Caroline

Thank you so much, Caroline! If I am editing pictures from my camera I use Lightroom to edit– I have created my own presets (I tweaked the VSCO presets to just the look I like) and I mostly use those! If I’m editing my iPhone pics I also use the VSCO app. I love the filter F1! :)
Thaaanks for the tips! :)
Beautiful photos! There’s just nothing like those gorgeous red rocks.
Nanner! How far is this from the strip? Ryan and I are traveling to Vegas on Sunday for a convention! We aren’t planning on renting a car but this looks beautiful!
To piggy-back on Caroline’s question, what type of lens do you use? I struggle with taking pictures with that much light (they always look so washed out). Should I be aiming for a higher f-stop? I’m new to manual settings!
