Lassen Volcanic National Park / January 12, 2024 by John Lazo

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!

Berkeley, California / June 17, 2023 by John Lazo

Over the past several months, I completed a master’s degree at UC Berkeley. During that time I developed a running collection of photographs from Berkeley, California. Berkeley gave me so much in my short time there, and I’m grateful for the experience. I fell in love with the weather, the energy…I just loved it.

Death Valley National Park / May 10, 2023 by John Lazo

Over spring break I camped in Death Valley National Park for four nights. The park was one of the largest I’ve been to (only Yellowstone was comparable in size). It was great to get outside and explore the desert. I even experienced some snowfall at the higher elevations, which was pretty incredible. Below are some of my favorite photos from the trip. All the pictures were made on a Canon R5 using either an RF 15-35mm lens or an EF 70-200 mm lens. These were all edited in Adobe Lightroom Classic.

Samuel P. Taylor State Park / April 14, 2023 by John Lazo

About a month ago my girlfriend and I camped for a couple nights in the redwoods at Samuel P. Taylor State Park in Northern California. The trees were beautiful and it was great to get outside.

Below are some of my favorite images from the weekend. All the pictures were created using a Canon EOS R5 and an RF 15-35mm lens or EF 70-200mm lens. The pictures were edited in Adobe Lightroom Classic.

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.

Lakeside, Oregon, Redwood National Park, & Pacific Coast / September 9, 2020 by John Lazo

During the second half of August, my sister and I took a two week road trip. We traveled to Lakeside, Oregon to stay with a family friend for a week. Then we headed down the Pacific Coast and camped in the Redwoods for four nights before traveling down the PCH towards Southern California.

Khola, Newbury Park, California / June 16, 2020 by John Lazo

Over the course of the lockdown due to COVID-19, I started on a small photography project. I photographed my dog, Khola over the course of several different evenings. I challenged myself to use a variety of lenses including a 50mm prime lens, a 16-35mm wide angle lens, a 24-70mm lens, a 100mm macro lens, and finally a 70-200mm telephoto lens. I compiled the best images from the different evenings. Check them out!

Lakeside, Oregon & California Coast / October 13, 2019 by John Lazo

At the end of August, my sister and I took a road trip to spend a week in Lakeside, Oregon with a family friend. We decided to drive home along the PCH, camping along the Navarro River in Northern California for one night and camping south of Big Sur, California for the next. I absolutely loved the scenery along the way as we traversed down the Pacific Coast.
