Price range: $500.00 through $2,899.00

ALL SKILL LEVELS ARE WELCOME!

Journey into one of the darkest corners of the American Southwest with Galaxies of the Gods, a 4-day, 3-night astrophotography workshop set among the towering rock formations of Valley of the Gods and Monument Valley, as well as the dramatic overlooks of Goosenecks State Park. This is your chance to elevate your nightscape photography in true Bortle 1 skies—some of the clearest, darkest conditions in the country.

🌌 What You’ll Experience:

• Milky Way Mastery – Capture breathtaking images of the Milky Way rising over the iconic sandstone monoliths of Valley of the Gods and the winding canyon bends of Goosenecks State Park.

• Blue Hour & Blending Techniques – Stay late into the night as we photograph the golden fade of sunset into blue hour, creating perfect frames for blending with our Milky Way shots.

• Remote Desert Beauty – Explore lesser-known, wildly photogenic terrain that feels like a slice of another world right here on Earth—with far fewer crowds.

📸 What’s Included:

✔️ 3 Nights Lodging – Comfortable accommodations to recharge after full nights under the stars – which is also conveniently our Milky Way shooting location.

✔️ Select Meals & Monument Valley Entry Provided – Includes snacks, Goodbye Brunch, and private access to Monument Valley after hours.

✔️ All 3 of My Custom Presets – Streamline your editing workflow with my signature Lightroom and ACR presets, built for nightscapes and desert light.

✔️ 2 Post-Processing Courses – Learn powerful techniques for blending blue hour with night skies, noise reduction, stacking, and more.

✔️ A Print Voucher to Steam Art & Graphics (for new participants only) – have one of your images printed on aluminum for free!

This workshop is perfect for photographers ready to push their creativity, expand their skillset, and shoot in some of the most unspoiled skies in the Lower 48. Galaxies of the Gods will leave you inspired, educated, and coming home with frame-worthy images.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brennen Nicole's Dreamscapes workshop at White Sands National Park was an amazing experience. She took us to the perfect locations that she had scouted ahead of the workshop, and provided each participant personal attention to ensure everyone came home with an incredible image. The editing portion of the workshop was just as incredible as the photography. She is a very knowledgeable and patient instructor and helped each one of us at our own level to edit the images we captured in the field. Highly recommend!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The workshop was magnificent~! Her timing and instructions (verbal, written, and in person) make it easy to follow along and she leaves plenty of time for questions and problems with equipment.  I had a such a relaxing but exhaustive 3 day weekend! Up at 3:30am to catch the first rising of the Milky Way... Homemade breakfast with more food than we could eat! Every detail well thought out for so many memories and a great experience! Thanks you, Brennen.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I got to experience the San Juan color tour with Brennen this fall. It was a dream trip. I learned so much from Brennen and she brought us to the most beautiful places. I can’t believe that I took some of the photos I’ve collected from this trip. I highly recommend Brennen- she’s professional, fun, encouraging, and down to earth. I’ll definitely be looking for more opportunities in the future with her!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brennen is an excellent workshop leader. She works hard to make experienced to beginner photographers comfortable and strives to give any level photographer new skills. I am a fairly experienced photographer and she taught me some great new techniques. I took her fall Colorado tour in September 2025. The workshop was well organized and filled with many opportunities for photography experiences. I highly recommend her workshop and tours.
