Welcome! My name is Michael Nilsen. A Utah based landscape and nature photographer.

With landscape photography I have come to realize more and more how important light really is to an image. And when the light hits just right that’s when the magic happens. You wont always get the light but that feeling you get as a landscape photographer when it does happen it’s something else. Pure excitement. Makes the early morning sunrises worth it even more. Might be tired but I can’t remember a time that I wish I didn’t get up but there have been many times I’ve regretted not getting up.
