Photographing Through The Seasons
AN eBOOK BY PHOTO CASCADIA
Great Places to Photograph Each Season
in the Western United States
Photographing Through the Seasons reverses the usual approach of a location guide. Rather than beginning with a destination, we begin with a season and recommend areas in the western United States that are likely to be highly photogenic at that time of year. Even for people who have a lot of freedom to travel, circumstances may dictate when that travel can happen. This guide answers the question of where to go to make the most of whatever time you have available for photographing nature.

I recently had the privilege of reading the latest Photo Cascadia eBook, Photographing Through The Seasons. I wanted to take a second to write you and pass along a combined thank you and congratulations. This guide is an all-encompassing bible to shooting throughout the Western US, and you’ve done an outstanding job of offering up ideas for photographers trying to find inspiring places to enjoy nature and create images.
What I found particularly compelling is the layers of knowledge that appeared throughout the entries. Not only did you discuss which areas and times to visit, but the personal anecdotes behind your shots gave me wonderful insight into the creative process you went through while making the incredible photographs displayed in the guide.
The nature tips were the perfect compliment to the location information, as it reminds me that we carry with us a responsibility to embrace the preservation of nature as we walk through it.
It’s obvious that a tremendous amount of work went into the creation of this book. The result is an excellent guide, inspirational read, and beautiful presentation of the photography and wisdom of some of the best nature photographers working today.
I enjoyed every word.
Photographing Through The Seasons is an excellent guide offering up destination ideas to photograph throughout the western states during the four seasons. As a landscape photographer, I appreciate the gorgeous imagery, the stories behind the images, and the photo tips written by members of the Photo Cascadia team.
Much care is taken to not disclose specific location GPS coordinates or directions in the guide. It’s clear that the Photo Cascadia team has a deep appreciation for nature and practice Leave No Trace principles themselves.
This guide is a must have for photographers wanting to make the most during their photo trips throughout the year.
Photographing Through the Seasons is not only a great guide to photographing the Western United States but also a great collection of stories and photography tips told by some of the world’s finest landscape photographers. The seasonal photography and processing tips can be useful for both beginning and advanced photographers alike.
As an avid lover of the outdoors and seasons, I loved the layout of this book. The authors incorporate beautiful imagery along with helpful processing tips in both Lightroom and Photoshop. One thing that really set it apart for me was the various “nature tips” throughout. As an advocate for the “leave no trace” principles, I found it admirable that the writers included so many great ideas around those topics. It certainly shows their respect for conservation and future generations. Overall it was such a fun and informative read that I found myself not wanting it to end.
