ANGELS LANDING PROPOSAL PHOTOGRAPHER (Zion) 🤍
Angels Landing permits for 2026 are open. A permit is required past Scout Lookout to the chains/summit. Spring seasonal lottery: Feb 13–Feb 25 (for hikes March 1–May 31).
Planning a secret proposal on Angels Landing (yes, even if you searched “Angles Landing”)? The lottery isn’t guaranteed, so your timeline matters.
For fixed travel dates, I partner with Zion Guide Hub, an authorized guiding team. If you don’t secure a permit on your own, you can still hike to the summit with a guide company that has permits available for your date.
I’ll help you plan the moment (crowds + light + shuttle timing), keep the surprise under wraps, and capture it naturally so it feels like you, not a production.
Send me “Angels Landing Proposal” + your dates for a calm Plan A + Plan B.
