Pinnacles National Park / March 23, 2024 by John Lazo

In December 2023, I spent the better part of a week in Pinnacles National Park with my girlfriend. It was a bit rainy, but we stayed relatively dry and explored most of the park. Some of the hikes were truly excellent. I hope you enjoy my favorite images from the trip. The pictures were created using a Canon R5 and a 15-35mm, 24-70mm, 70-200mm, or 400mm lens. All the photos were edited in Adobe Lightroom Classic.

At the beginning of August 2023, my girlfriend and I camped for 5 days in Lassen Volcanic National Park. We hiked Mt. Lassen and explored quite a bit of the park. I hope you enjoy some of my favorite images from the trip!

Europe Landscapes / November 5, 2023 by John Lazo

This past summer I spent a month in Europe with my sister traveling to Madrid, Spain, Barcelona, Spain, Paris, France, Berlin, Germany, Herisau, Switzerland, Venice, Italy, and Rome, Italy. Below are some of my favorite landscape photographs from my time there. Personally, Madrid, Paris, and Berlin were especially memorable. That said, great food was abound and experiencing a taste of the cultures was an incredible experience in each location we visited.

Yosemite National Park / June 26, 2021 by John Lazo

I took a road trip to Yosemite National Park with my girlfriend towards the end of May. Luckily, there was still quite a bit of snow, which made for some unique photographs. Here’s some of my favorites! All the images were edited in Adobe Lightroom Classic.

Woolsey Fire, Malibu, California / November 30, 2018 by John Lazo

Last week I drove to Malibu, California at sunset to photograph some of destruction of the recent Woolsey Fire in Southern California. The fire burned to the coast. I started photographing along the PCH until I stumbled upon a small community of houses where I came across several houses that got burned down. It was an incredible experience that makes you consider all the things it’s easy to take for granted.

All the photographs were taken with a Canon 7D Mark II along with a 24-70mm lens. The photos were predominantly edited using Adobe Lightroom in combination with Nik Color Efex Pro.
