Hello photography lovers!
|
|
Today more than ever it is important to focus on gratitude: the practice of noticing and being thankful for what is valuable and meaningful to you.
Gratitude enriches human life. It improves your physical and mental health, helps you relax, sleep better and strengthens your immune system (and who doesn't need all that right now?).
If today you are feeling stressed out, uninspired, lonely or frustrated, may this letter bring some joy to your heart and remind you of the things to be thankful for in this moment.
Here are 10 photo reasons that we feel GRATITUDE on UTadventure!

|
1. We are grateful for Wilderness
|
|
We are grateful that wild, pristine nature exists, is still accessible, and always welcomes us humans, relaxing our minds, uplifting our souls and rejuvenating our bodies when we choose to partake of its healing offerings.

2. We are grateful for the Human Body

Our legs are powerful enough to walk, and take us to the most beautiful locations. Our arms are strong enough to carry the things you love most: be it our grand kids, a pup or our trusted cameras! Our heart is beating, and our lungs keep us breathing while we continue to explore the beauty of this Earth.

3. We are grateful for Sunsets
|
|
Every night nature provides us with amazing beauty, no matter where we live. As long as we slow down enough to notice...

4. We are grateful for how Colorful this World truly is!
|
|
Juicy colors are so stimulating, evoking emotions and affecting moods. Maybe that's why we can't seem to stop smiling while on tour? :)

5. We are grateful for the Night Sky

Nymph enjoying the night sky

On UTadventure, we are sky obsessed. Nothing compares to enjoying our packed picnic dinner under a myriad of stars in the vast, velvety night sky.
6. We are grateful for Cameras
|
|
|
Yes! We are SO thankful for the ability to capture our vision and also our memories. Thank you, our trusted digital, film and phone cameras!

7. We are grateful for Sunshine

We love, love, love a bright sunshine filled day! If we could, we would spend every moment outdoors. Actually, that what pretty much happens on tour anyways. :)
8. We are grateful for other Humans

We are so thankful for a deep, soulful connection with other artists that share our passion to CREATE.
9. We are grateful for moments of Solitude

What a blessing to be a way from the clutter of society, to feel peace, recharge our batteries and generate new ideas, reflecting on life and on ourselves.
10. We are grateful for this Community

We could not have said it better than Joe Symchyshyn (a great photographer and now a good friend) said after attending one of our tours last year:
"UTadventure reminds me that I do have this little family of like-minded creative people out there. Some I know, some I do not (yet), but I can connect with through social media, etc. Knowing that we're all inspired and moved by a similar sensibility, an appreciation for the beauty of the human creation and this incredible planet we all share, brings me joy and a connection I feel I lack in my day to day life."

Whew!
TOO MANY things to be grateful for! :)
Reminding ourselves to be grateful even for the simplest things is one of the best things we can do for our health and well being (besides washing your hands of course!)
One last thing: in case you are itching to get outdoors after being locked down inside all these weeks, we JUST had a spot open up on our JUNE 17TH - 22ND Utah tour!
This is your chance to join our wonderful little group in creating the most mind blowing art in one of the best (and most secluded!) photo locations on the face of the planet.
We understand that it may not be simple to make travel plans at this very moment, that's why UTadventure wants to make joining us easier with a special deal package geared specifically towards our summer tours!
HERE IS WHAT YOU GET IF YOU SIGN UP NOW:
- $350 off the full tour price (regularly $3500)
- Free extra optional shoot at a very exciting location ($300 value)
- The absolutely BEST camera strap on the market from our friends at BLACKRAPID
*Offer valid through June 15th. Limited Availability, first come first serve!
**Choose between June, August or Sept 2020 tours only.
And to put your mind at ease, remember that we are waving ALL cancellation fees in case you need to reschedule due to any pandemic related issues.
